9 months!

Charlie turned 9 months old yesterday! I can't believe how fast it's gone. He is such a fun little boy. He is VERY active. He never stops moving. He started crawling when he was 5 1/2 months and hasn't stopped since. He loves to stand up and now can stand up on his own without holding on to anything. He LOVES to eat. The only thing he doesn't like is peas. He has begun to take steps on his own but doesn't seem very interested in walking. His favorite thing to do is pull anything he can off shelves. He also likes to suck on everything. And lately he loves to sneak up on me and bite my toes...so weird. He also loves to give kisses with his whole mouth open. He has started to sleep through the night more and now only wakes up once or twice and cries for about 5-10 minutes then falls back asleep. The other night he slept for 13 hours! It was awesome. He also takes 2 naps a day which are each 2-4 hours long. Charlie loves to play peek-a-boo and listening to music. He laughs all the time. Especially when I kiss his hands. Charlie is also SUPER ticklish! He loves to play with his daddy and gets so excited everyday when Daniel gets home from school. He is such a happy boy and hardly ever cries. This last week he has started wanting to be held ALL the time. We love our little Charlie boy! He is so much fun!
