9 Months Old Today!

Can you believe it?! How can it be true?! How can my little Parker man already be 9 months old today?! Parker, you are just growing up way too fast! We just had your 9 month checkup with Dr. Ryan and as she said "you are doing awesome!" You weighed 21 lbs 12 oz (70%) and were 29 inches long (70%) which makes you PERFECT!! And don't ever let your silly Brosseau uncles tell you that you have a big head b/c it measured 45 cm (50%) which again is PERFECT!! I wish I could invent a mommy time machine that would stop you from growing up but then again I love to see all your newfound talents each and everyday. You melt my heart every time I see your sweet little face. You are absolutely in love with your big brother Philip... you think he is so funny, you literally smile nonstop to the point where I begin to wonder if your mouth gets tired and you have a belly laugh that is contagious to everyone around you! You are becoming more and more independent these days as you like to feed yourself which I must say is pretty amusing, take off your shoes and socks, hold your own bottle and pretty much do anything just like your big brother. You have just started crawling a few steps at a time though you really are pretty content where ever you are with no real rush to get anywhere new. I must say you get that from your daddy and I am thanking my lucky stars how laid back and easy going you are. You truly define the term "angel baby" as I call you everyday and when you belly laugh... it makes me laugh till I cry. You love to play with anything that has strings attached so I am pretty sure that must mean you are going to be very committed to every dream you ever have which again makes me smile! I feel beyond blessed to be your mommy and we are enjoying every second of everyday with you! We love you "Carker Man" (as Philip lovingly calls him everyday)! xoxo
