9 Months old!!! (well, really 9 1/2 months old)

Ben turned 9 months old on the 14th!  I can't believe how fast 9 months has gone!!  Ben is such a fun happy little boy!!! He loves his sister and wants to be doing everything she is!!  It's really cute, Alli will ask me "can bubby play with me?"  I have to remind her that he is still a baby and that she needs to be gentle with him.  (She likes to pick him up or roll around with him!!) She also likes to pull him!  He is walking now! But not as fast as she would like him!!  He's been cruising using furniture for about a month now and a few weeks ago he started to take steps but still used crawling as his main mode of transportation.  Now he will walk across the room!!!  If he falls he sometimes gets back up or he crawls to his destination but he is loving the walking now!!!! 

When Scott comes home from work he will walk over to him as fast as he can!! It is so sweet to see!! He gives the best hugs and kisses! He is also waving hi and bye!! He likes to give hi fives! He talks all the time but nothing recognizable yet! He does say "more" in sign language! (looks more like clapping) He likes to clap a bunch! If we say let's go Rangers, he claps!!  So does Alli!! It is a very fun time watching the games with the two of them!!! We just love our kiddos so much and are so thankful for such fun, happy and healthy kids!! 
 
We took Ben to his 9 month check-up last week and the doctor said eveything was great!!  Alli, Ben and I had to get our Flu shots so I asked the nurse if I could go first so that Alli didn't see Ben cry during his.  It woked out great! I got mine (no crying), Alli got hers (no crying!) and Ben got his plus another one (some crying).  All day Alli kept saying "go to the doctor and get Flu shot?!" She was so proud of her band aid!!  Ben was not so happy with his band aids!! He only cried for maybe 30 seconds! Here are his stats.

Weight: 21lbs 12ozs- 67%

Lenght: 28 1/2in- 56%

Head: 18 1/2cm- 89%

Here are some pictures of our sweet baby boy!!  I will try and upload the videos I have of him walking soon!

I wanted to get a picture of him in jeans for the first time.  I love this because it looks like he's just chilin!

Alli shared her Dora backpack with him!

My sweet baby boy!!

Reallly, he is so sweet!!!

He LOVES the swing!!

He even smiles when his sister is poking him!!

Anything Alli is playing with is what Ben wants to play with!! He especially loves knocking down her towers!

Look at this cutie!!

He loves to point at anything and everything!!

Showing off his boots!!

Waiting for the doctor!!

He does not sit still anymore!!

Big sister loves him!!!

The cutiest Rangers fans!!

He has one tooth that jsut came in and I think another one coming soon!

He is looking at me like this because he was climbing over Alli's Dora chair and he knew he wasnt supposed to!
