The Little Mister is 9 months old!

My Little Mr. Handsome is growing up so fast!

It’s amazing how quickly 9 months have passed by.

And through it all, the Little Mister has turned into quite the happy, funny Little Chap!

Following in his sister’s footsteps, he’s always on the move and always into EVERYTHING.

Maybe one day I’ll be able to transform his enthusiasm for household items into a willingness to actually do some chores for me. The Little Miss is already into sweeping up “yucky piles” with my broom. It makes this Clean Freak Mama oh so proud.

The Little Mister continues to think that the Little Miss is the coolest kid around…

…Up until the point that she knocks him over (onto his head), or shakes him too hard in the swing (note his look of trepidation below).

Sigh. It’s a work in progress.

But she loves him so much, and has a heart full of good intentions.

Our Little Mr. Cuddles gets so excited when Daddy comes home.

Their greetings begin with hugs…and then quickly become climbing sessions on Daddy’s head.

I keep telling Daddy that he needs to prepare himself for another Little Wrestler in the family (the Little Miss is already quite the Little Brawler). But that’s what Daddies are for!

But no matter what he’s doing, our Little Man is a HOOT.
Here’s a video that I took yesterday, trying to capture his new crawling skills.

Type in “wright” to watch.

He’s a ray of sunshine, and a blessing each and every day!

Happy 9 months to our darling Little Mister!!!

(Flashing his two bottom teeth. He has 4 more on the top now!)

The Little Mister is 7 Months Old!

Our Little Chunky Monkey is 7 months old!

So what does a ridiculously cute, overwhelmingly sweet, unstoppably active, nearly 21lb 7-month-old do for fun, you ask?

Well, when he isn’t pulling our hair or covering our faces in sloppy kisses, he loves to…

– (Army) crawl every which-where!
Chasing Teddy (the dog) is a particular favorite past-time of the Little Man’s, including crawling up into Teddy’s bed and getting covered in dog hair (Yeah…gross. Let’s just say Mama always has the lint roller at the ready).

– Chomp on his sister’s toys!
Or ANYTHING else in his vicinity, including carpets, baskets, coasters, paper…you name it!
And you should see him shake her maracas…the boy has some moves!

– Eat! Eat! Eat!
Truth be told, he’s still a milk guy. But he seems so interested in eating more. Interested, that is, until we actually put solids into his mouth…at which point he gags in disgust. The only thing he really likes is graham crackers, made into a baby-food mash. But I keep trying to convince Little Mr. Picky that there are many other delightful foods out there that he can enjoy.

Just ask his Big Sis!
