First time swinging

Max is participating in a study at UW and afterward we go to Green Lake and jog or walk around if its not raining. They happen to have a great park there. I put Max in one of the baby swings there. He wasn’t sure about it at first but he eventually liked it. Of course I didn’t have my camera.

Here are some pictures of Max swinging the next day with his friend Noah and my friend Tina at a playground close to their house.

Silly Daddy

Kelly usually gets Max ready for bed and changes his diaper and puts his p.j.’s on him. He also does this int he living room. This is what happened last night.

Backpack Max

Max seems to enjoy riding around on his daddy in a backpack!

Nine Months Old!

Max is nine months old! When did this happen!?

Stats: 19lbs.(50-75th percentile) He’s a lean, mean baby machine!

90th percentile for height

Here is some of what he has been up to:

Crawling like crazy and able to pull himself up

Walking behind his little walking toy

Working on getting back down on the floor

Going up stairs

Cruises when holding on to furniture

Feeding himself cheerios, cheese, puffs etc with a pincer grasp

Turns pages of books sometimes if he’s interested (usually he has better things to do then sit still)

Will stop briefly when told, “no.”

Turns when his name is called

Starting to exhibit reluctance toward strangers

First beets – not a hit. I mix them with other vegetables to disguise their interesting flavor.

 

Likes:

Sprinkles the cat (the feeling is not mutual)

Dogs (Charlie, Bella, Sam & Buddy :)

Feeding himself

Finding mommy

Playing peek-a-BOO!

Watching cars drive by

Going for walks in his jogger

Bouncing

Baths

First cheese! Far better than stinky beets.

 

Dislikes:

Having clothes put on him (having to be still)

Having his nose wiped

Having his snot sucked

Being laid down for a nap

Having to wait a little for food

Shots

Being put in his car seat (its getting better though)
