Our growing boy...

It's hard to believe that Quintin is now nine months old!  The past couple of months have been quite eventful, with several major milestones for Q.  Crawling and pulling up to standing are high on the list.  It's so amazing how one moment they can't do something, and the next moment they can.

We had to lower the crib towards the end of his seventh month because he started crawling and pulling up to standing!

Somewhere in his seventh month he started using his big-boy sippy cup.

We started brushing his six teeth in his eighth month.  At first he didn't really like it but now he does!

Here he is at eight months already trying to climb!  I'm not sure I was quite ready for the mobility stage; he's quite active!  However, I'm loving chasing around after him.  Never a dull moment.  :)

Bath time!  His hair has definitely grown, too.

We bought a little kiddie pool and put it out on our balcony.

He loves it!  I'm sure he'll be a great swimmer like his daddy.

We've had several other firsts, too, like "momma" and "dadda."  He also is officially saying "up," too.  He loves to sing, clap and to be cheered on.  He can now sign "more," "all done," and "please."  He likes to point at things, and loves people.  Tonight at the store he was waving at people and singing to them, along with pointing.  He also loves to be tickled by his daddy and likes to "get us" by putting his head down and bulldozing into us (which then he usually follows it up with a sloppy open-mouth kiss).  It really is absolutely amazing to watch how fast he is growing and changing, developmentally and physically.  We're so thankful for every sweet day with our precious baby boy!
