Noah is 9 Months Old, Yipee!

Noah turned 9 months old last Thursday, on Thanksgiving Day. He is so big and growing more independent. He rolls easily and scoots around on his belly. He is just starting to push back onto his knees, so maybe crawling is just around the corner. He eats many different types of food but turkey and chicken are his favorites. He also enjoys puffed cereal. He is able to stand with just a little support, clap, and point. He now sleeps through the night and seems to prefer sleeping on his tummy. Noah likes to show off his two bottom teeth with his big smile.

He is very happy and sociable most of the time, but has been going through a phase of being a big clingy to Mommy. There is no clear winner for a favorite toy, but Noah is drawn to anything red.

At his 9 month check-up his measurements were:

Weight: 18 pounds, 7 ounces (18th percentile)
Height: 28 1/2 inches (60th percentile)
Head circumference: 44 1/2 cm (28th percentile)
