Jacob is getting way too close to being a year old!!!
Looking at Colby instead of me.
Refusing to smile.
Trying out some elephant ears.
And done taking pictures.Jacob has had a busy month. When he went in for his 9 month well-check the nurse asked us developmental questions like:
Does he crawl? To which we said he can army crawl, but he can't crawl normally yet.
Can he pull himself up? No, we haven't even seen him try.
Does he have teeth? No, no teeth yet.
That was on Monday, September 14th. On Wednesday the 16th we noticed that he had a tooth coming through and within a week his two front bottom teeth were in. On Thursday the 17th I went to get him from a nap and he was standing in his crib holding on to the bars. And by Saturday the 19th he was crawling regularly more than he was army crawling. Apparently he didn't know he was supposed to be doing that stuff until he heard the nurse ask about it.
Jacob loves Colby's food. I'm not sure if he has ever put any of it in his mouth, but he loves to crawl over to the dish and play with the food. Colby does not like Jacob playing with his food and tries to eat as fast as he can to keep Jacob from getting it. In fact, Jacob and I ran a couple errands on Monday and when I got Jacob out of his car seat at the store, there was a piece of dog food in the seat under him. Hmmm.
Jacob loves for Mommy to hold him. But he doesn't like to just sit and have me hold him, he likes to be walked around. In fact, I have learned that if I lay down on the floor, Jacob likes to crawl all over me more than playing with any of his toys.
Jacob loves to crawl into the kitchen and literally pull on my apron strings. He also loves to look at his reflection in the fridge and the dishwasher.
Jacob loves to play with the door stops. Which is why we don't have very many of them anymore.
Jacob will eat about 1 tablespoon of rice cereal a day which means we are making some progress with "solids". He doesn't seem to like the flavors of most things though so anytime we give him anything else he acts like he is gagging. Then he refuses to open his mouth to eat anything else. He is a punk.
Here are a few other pictures of our little man from the past month.
Trying to figure out why he can't get into the dining room.
Not sure what to think of the swing at the park.
Sitting with Daddy and giving a smile even though he was sick with stomach flu.
Giving us a huge smile on his new little riding toy.

Love the last picture! He looks so big now! Time goes by way too fast. I hope you're all feeling healthy again!
He has had a busy month! He is getting so big. So glad he is over the stomach virus that had him sick for so long. Can't wait to see ya'll in a couple of weeks!
Definitely a very cute little man! I'm glad he's feeling better.
That is one cute little boy!!! He looks so big! Hope you guys are all feeling better!!!
What a cutie! I really noticed in these pictures how much his hair has grown.
I love what you write about him...It really helps you see what a character he is! And, he has a wonderful little smile - I love it!...Even if he is a little punk and doesn't like food - weird!
