Mr. Big Stuff

Well, Code is 9 months old!  It doesn't seem possible, but he is.  He started army crawling about 3 weeks ago...May 24th to be exact.  We were all in the computer room one evening, and he just started!  He has gotten very good at this army crawl, and I'm pretty sure he will walk before he EVER does an actual hands and knees crawl.  That's cool with me though, since crawling isn't a milestone...and he get's to where he needs to go. :)  Hello baby-proofing!

Cody got two more teeth on Friday, May 27.  There were top teeth, but not the middle two.  Leave it to my baby to not do things 'by the book'.  About a week later the top middle two poked through, so we are now up to six teeth within a month and a half, and it looks like we'll have some more very soon!

He has been sitting up for quite some time.  Unfortunatly, he couldn't really catch himself if he started to fall.  So needless to say, sitting up was not fun for either of us!  Well, last Thursday, June 9, we were in the computer room playing (he must like it in here!).  I was on the computer doing a bit of research, while he was army crawling all over playing with my workout stuff.  Well, I looked back and what did I see??  Cody sitting up, looking at me so proud!  I couldn't believe it!  He had done it himself.  Well, just right after he sat himself up, he crawled on over to our printer and pulled himself up on that...making his way on top of it!  Seriously!  He did all of this in one night??!!  Where oh where has my baby gone?! :)  I am just so proud of him.  The next day we went shopping and Mr. pulled himself to standing on the stroller in the dressing room.  I was shocked.  I just can't believe how much they change in a matter of days. 

Sunday, June 12 brought our first big bump.  He was (guess where)...that's right, the computer room playing with daddy while I was getting ready, and he crawled over to the elliptical machine and tried to pull himself up...it was not a success.  He hit his head pretty good, very close to his temple.  There was a pretty good bump there for most of the morning.  It had gone down to pretty much only a bruise by the afternoon, and now you can hardly tell that anything ever happened.  He is such a strong little guy.  He hardly cried!  Just tells me that he's hard headed like my side, and strong like his daddy ;)
