Hard to believe, but our little butter ball is 9 months old today. We think he is perfect in every single way and are all pretty much obsessed with him. 9 months is such a cute baby age, and we are constantly smiling or laughing at him b/c everything he does is so cute. I could go on forever, but I'll spare you, and just list a few fun facts about him at 9 months:
* He just got his 3rd tooth, and it's on the bottom, so he has a little row of 3 bottom teeth.
* Just this week he started giving kisses. I'll ask for a kiss and he will come at me with a wide open mouth. It's hilarious. Yesterday we were at a play place with Alec and another little boy came up to check Charlie out and got close to his face to say something, which Charlie must have interpreted as give me a kiss, b/c he gave the little boy a wide open mouthed smooch.
* He crawls everywhere, quickly, and pulls up on everything. He lets go with both hands all the time, but his balance is a mess, so he wipes out constantly.
* He loves food and often eats more than Alec, but he is very particular about what he wants and when, and if he is sleepy or hungry or otherwise put off in some way while we try to feed him he grunts and moans at us like crazy. He has turned into a very noisy and demanding eater.
* He just started waving and I will catch him waving at random objects, like the walls, often.
* He has a hilarious guttural, snorty laugh and he laughs all the time. We will just be driving down the street and he will all the sudden be cracking up. I've been attempting to record it, but it is so spontaneous and unpredictable that I haven't really succeeded yet.
* He has started to babble more consonant sounds, and just recently I have heard d's and g's, but whenever he is sad or really wants to be picked up, he looks right at me and lets out a very clear mamamamama.
He has his 9 month appointment tomorrow, so I'm not sure what his numbers are yet, but he is still a very big, very handsome, and very lovable boy.

Of course Alec (who often refers to himself as "big baby") wanted to participate in the pictures.
Adorable

Could he be any cuter?

Adorable boys. Thanks for blog Mom...we love seeing the kids and hearing of the antics. How did Charlie get to be 9 months old already?!!
9 months old!!!! Oh my gosh, how did that happen? He gets cuter and
cuter with each post. And of course, Drammy sure loves "Big Baby". Kind of glad to see he's hanging on to that moniker for a while.
He is SO cute, I can't help but smile when I see his cute face in these posts. I am so excited to see he and Mac together so soon, I think they will make quite the pair, much like their big brothers do! Happy 3/4 of a year Charlie, you are the best!
No, he could not be any cuter!
Charlie is absolutely adorable! I can't believe that he is already 9 months old! We can't wait to see all of you very soon!
