Nine Months

I missed Liam's 9 month post, and now he is almost 10 months so I better catch up.  This kid can eat!  Only 3 bottles a day, except that he's picked up a night feeding for some reason.  I tried to fight it, but after getting up and down for 2 hours each night replacing paci's, rocking, giving tylenol for sore teeth, etc, Chase and I would finally just feed him- which takes 7 minutes and he GULPS down 8 ounces.  So Im just going to feed him when he cries and hope that once he starts whole milk this will cease.  He is eating solid foods like a linebacker though, and eats almost everything we eat.  Like 4 meals a day of fruits, veggies, eggs, meats, pastas, cheese and snacks.  He is burning it all off with his crazy crawling skills, and pulls up, stands holding things for as long as he needs, and can even balance for a hot second  while he stands without holding things.  He's 17 pounds and 28.5 inches.  (10th% and 50%).  He also says "mama" "dada" and "ra ra" along with "baba" "papa". Whether he associates these words with people I'm not sure, but he knows his name is Liam and will turn to you when you say it.  Smart boy!
