I'm finding it strange that my baby is 9 months old already! Where has the time gone? In 3 months he will be1!!! I guess I need to start planning for his birthday because before I know it, it will be here. Here are his new stats:
Height: 28 inches (50%)
Weight: 16 lbs 8 oz (5%)
He is still pretty small compared to other babies. Case in point, I saw a 4 month old boy the other day who was the same size, if not larger than Benjamin! I thought he was a big boy until I saw him next to that baby. Our kids may be small but they sure are smart. He has gotten really fast at crawling, he pulls himself up like a pro, cruises like there is no tomorrow and he has gotten walking with a walker down to an art. He hates all of the pureed baby foods and cereals and prefers food right from your plate (though he doesn't have any teeth yet). Some of his favorite foods are peas, green beans, pinto beans, pears, applesauce, toast, crackers and sweet potato fries. He has also had 2 ear infections in the last month, so the doctor looked at his ear really good today. She said it still doesn't look like an ear should and that he will probably be getting another ear infection in a few weeks. When/if that happens that she will refer us to an ENT...yea...another specialist. (sigh) Don't we feel special?

I am feelin' your pain. I am not going to post about Julia's ongoing issues but I will share a little with you. I took her to the dentist yesterday and he is refering her to a specialist. Her teeth are fine but she has a small issue with the little thingy (very technical, I know) that connects her lip to her gums. Not a big deal but it is just one more thing to add to the list. I think that makes a total of 4 specialists for us and she's only 19 months old, I can hardly wait to see how many more specialists the future holds!
In a sad twisted way it helps me feel like I am not alone.
