Our little man turned 9 months old at the beginning of the month. These pictures, however, were taken in the middle of it. The day I planned on taking his photos, he smacked his face on our bed frame and got a nice scab right in the middle of his face. Well, it took way too long for that to heal, so it took a bit longer than I'd have liked. 
At his 9 month appointment, Sammy weighed 21 pounds 7 ounces - down to the 65%. He is also 30 inches long and has a gigantic head! The doctor was a bit worried about his weight - not that he is skinny or anything but that he has moved down the scale so quickly - at his 6 month appointment he was in the 93%. Lucy did the same thing though and she was just fine. Plus, we talked about what Sammy is eating and decided to make a point of putting more protein and dairy in his diet to see if that makes a difference. 
Sammy's biggest news for the month is his teeth - he got his first, second, third, fourth, and fifth teeth all during this month! Which means he was drooly, ornery, and oh, so much fun! Yes, sarcasm is intended! He has his top middle four teeth and one middle tooth on the bottom. He really has done relatively well with it all though. 
January was a sicky one for us - Lucy got sick, then Sammy got sick, then I got sick, and at the beginning of February, Spencer got sick. In fact, Sammy even got a double ear infection, poor guy! 
It's been fun to watch him and Lucy start to interact more and more. In the car sometimes they will just laugh and laugh with each other. Sammy will also follow Lucy around sometimes at home. He loves to play now - especially with things he shouldn't like cords, pens, and basically anything electronic. When I pull out my camera, he goes straight for it. 
We sure love this little man!
