9 Months

Kyle has turned 9 months!  I know!  Time continues to fly by.

 Even though he prefers his thumb, this is the other look we get...teething=finger in mouth all.the.time.

 Absolutely happy!

 I can't get enough of this smile.

Balls at our house are outside toys.  At Aunt Amy's they were inside and his all-boy self was fully captivated and determined to get those balls!

 Ah..ha!  Got em!

 Possibly my favorite.

 Yup. This face is common place...it's all about the blankie.

 Have you met Linus?  

 Oh the happiness blankie brings. Don't worry, Linus.  Mommy T.O.T.A.L.L.Y. gets it!

Not only is he crawling (started 9 months), but he has a tooth (came in 8.5 months)!!!
