Nine Months - A Couple Weeks Late

Gaius turned nine months old... a couple of weeks ago. I wrote this up and forgot about it -- my bad. He has now been on the outside for longer than he was in my torso region.


Some of his favorite things to do include:

- Opening and closing doors.
- Standing at the safety gate at the top of the stairs and rattling it until someone gets the hint and takes him downstairs to play.
- Playing Dad's guitars.
- Eating cat food (or at least trying) and dumping out their water dish to play in the resulting puddle.
- Pulling all of his books off the shelf and chewing on them. He especially enjoys doing this if I have recently put them all away. Thanks kid.
- Having Dad "chase" him as he does his best to crawl to Mom for safety.

Other notables:
- he has three teeth on the bottom and one of his top front teeth is making it's way through.
- He recognizes and sometimes uses words (mama, dada, baba, more, jump and no).
- He seems to have moderately curly hair. Where that came from, I have no idea.
- He is quite possibly the sweatiest baby on planet earth. That kid perspires like no other, so he tends to roam around the house in just a onesie.
- He'll eat just about everything, but he loves cucumbers. If you take his slice away from him, he'll scream/cry.
