I know I say it every month, but seriously he is almost a year!!!! That's just crazy talk. This little guy is seriously the best baby ever! No joke he is so happy and so chill. Just goes along with ever we have going on. He has started the beginning stages of teething, ya know the ones that last forever before they actually get a tooth. He is MR. Slobbers as Boston calls him, and puts everything in his mouth. This is such a good sign for Carter. He had such a bad oral aversion that if you even touched his lips he would arch his back and cry so yeah for everything in his mouth. His favorite is definitely his snuggly. He LOVES that thing! He really plays with his toys now and I think his favorite one is his little giraffe rattle. He is a champion sleeper! He prefers to just be put in his crib and fall asleep rather than being rocked. He takes two really good naps a day and sometimes a little cat nap around dinner time. I don't know how long he would actually nap for because it seems like we always have to wake him up, but I am sure they would be REALLY long if we let him. He is getting to the point that he only really likes to sleep in his bed. If we are out he is eyes wide open and loves to check everything out. Really he is a perfect baby one that if we didn't have all the craziness that we do I would totally be the mom that said I will have 5 more. Joking I was never cut out to be a Mom of that many kids, but I would take another 1-2 maybe if things were different. You get the point he is awesome! No questions asked his Brother is his favorite person by far. If he is in his view he is all smiles. It is one of our favorite things to watch is the two of them together. Boston really is so great with him!
Now for the exciting part. Carter is one the Charts!!!! Last check up we had he was starting to fall of the charts even for his 25 weeker growth chart. I tell ya what that dang feeding tube that I wish we didn't have comes in handy. Add more volume and calories to his milk and bam he is on the charts for a 9 month old!! We were so happy about this.
Weight: 16 lbs 1 oz putting him in the 3rd percentile!!!! I know we are barely on there, but wahoo anyways!
Height: 27 inches 10-25 percentile
Head: 17.9 inches 50-75 percentile
Just like his big brother. Tall, skinny, and a BIG head! That's how we make them I boy they are cute. Anyways we LOVE this little peanut so much and feel so blessed to be his parents.

um, really?! He is so cute. I just love him. K, we really live so close, we need to meet up ;)
i can't believe he's already 9 months! that's crazy talk. i feel like him & Lola are at the same stage right now-teething, playing with toys, slobbering on everything & going to sleep on their own. we're just barely starting all of that over here. so exciting that he's on the charts! keep growing Carter! love & miss you guys!
(oh & i'm pretty sure i've said this a time or two but Lola has the same snuggly, except her's is pink, as Carter's)
Love the diaper pic with the zebra snuggly! Can't wait for him to get his new trach thing (I forgot the name). You sure make cute boys.
Congrats on getting back on the charts!! He is so cute! I love that Boston is his favorite person. That's so sweet.
