9 Months!
-He is 18 lbs 12 oz In the 20% (only 8 oz up from 3 months ago)- doc doesn't seem to be worried
-28 1/4 inches tall in the 50 % (up two inches form 6 month visit)
-He sleeps from 6:30- about 6am and takes two naps one around 8:30 and one about 12:30
-He loves to walk everywhere holding on to someone of course
-He likes to drink form his sippie cup, so we only offer the bottle in the mornings and before bed
-He "talks" alot! mama, dada. nana. tata and funny spitting and clicking noises
-He eats oatmeal and fruit for breakfast, veggie and fruit for lunch, and meat with a fruit at dinner. All gerber baby food stage 2
-He loves his light up table, his new walker, and his bouncy seat.
-While I get ready in the morning or eat breakfast he likes to sit in his bouncy seat, play and watch cartoons.
-He is NOT crawling yet, and doesn't seem to be at all interested. Its hard on me because that means I am bending over walking with him all day. He always wants to be standing up. We practice crawling everyday but nothing yet. Maybe he will go straight to walking.
Looks like he is pointing to his sign :)

Thanks Katie!
What a world of a difference!!!! Sage is now taking two naps a day at 9 and 1 and sometimes a third nap. I soothe him for about 10 minutes then put him down awake. He doesn't even cry anymore. Just falls asleep on his own!! This is a HUGE succes for us. It;s so freeing to put him down and walk away and not spend 45 minutes trying to get him to go to sleep. Then at night, I bathe him, give him a bottle, soothe him and put him down. This used to take forever, but now I know he can be put in bed awake and fall asleep by himself! We are putting Sage down at 6:30 and he wakes around 6:30. No crying!!! Of course every day is not perfect and every nap is not perfect but it is miles from where we started!
The book has great tips, problem solving techniques, and explains to you how important good sleep is. THANK YOU Katie!!!
I highly reccomend this book! It is broken up into ages too! Great to have even if you are not having problems now. You never know what will come at what age!
