4th of July fun

Oh, you know, just reading a road map while
sitting on the potty

Best buds

Headed out to celebrate 6 years of wedded bliss

Oh my goodness melt my heart

9 Months

Sawyer Boy is 9 months old!  I seriously can't believe this happy tiny boy will be one soon.  Not possible.
 
He had his 9 month check-up today.  At his 6 month check-up he was 16 lbs.  And now he's up to...17 lbs!  I was a little concerned that he only gained a pound in 3 months, but the doctor said he wasn't worried, and that Sawyer will probably always be small.  I don't know how he's so tiny, he eats anything and everything, and will eat as long as we will feed him.  I'm not sure what his favorite food is, he seems to love it all.

 
Sawyer likes to give high fives, babble, and be held.  He loves to splash in the bathtub, but Henry is very quick to sternly tell him, "No splashing in the bathtub, Sawyer." His favorite toy is paper- baby wipes, paper towels, tissue paper-  it doesn't matter, he loves it.  Henry is his best friend, and his whole face lights up when Henry plays with him and talks to him.  He will lean forward and get on his hands and knees to try to get to what he wants, but doesn't crawl yet.  He can stand up holding on to furniture, but doesn't cruise yet.  Sawyer gives the biggest hugs, and open-mouthed slobbery kisses.  He still seems pretty content to sit and smile and watch the world around him.  I hope he grows up to be a good listener and deep thinker.  And I hope he still likes to hug his momma when he's all grown up.
