9 Months

 Madden loves to swim! We tried to get as many days by the pool before we left Vegas. He has seven teeth, 4 on top and 3 on bottom. He has the best giggle in the world, it is just rare to hear it.

The day after we moved Madden decided to start crawling which lead to pulling himself up onto everything. Now he thinks he needs to be standing majority of the time. I love that he is mobile. I think it is so nice that he can get what he wants. 

He claps for everything, when people say hello, goodbye, good job, or when he is happy. He is also a spitter. He recently had crackers in his mouth and I had a friend get close to his face to talk to him and he gave her a nice sprinkle of spit and orange crackers on her face. 

He is always saying...

Ba

Mama

Dada

Puh (always in a whisper)

and his most recent is the S or TH noise. 

He got his very first sun burn at his cousins soccer game, but by the next morning it was a tan. Hooray for him getting his mama's skin.

Happy 9 months little guy! We love you!
