9 months

And now Mr. Miles is 9 months old. 

He decided that he was brave enough to climb the stairs. Luckily I watch him like a hawk and decided that he was done exploring this new skill once he got half-way up. 

He has 6 shiny and sharp teeth.

He likes to give kisses now which turn into slobbery bites. He thinks it's hilarious when you try to squirm away. 

He must taste everything and if it's something soft he will take a bite out of it. 

He moved into his new crib nearly a month ago and the transition went smoothly, he was so excited the first moment we put him in there. 

He had his first big sickness this month. He had a fever for 3 days along with an awful stuffy nose and raspy cough. It was so sad. The worst part is that he went nearly all day without flashing his charming smile. He is mostly better now but still working on sleeping better.

He likes to gag on most foods that aren't pureed baby food so we are still working on incorporating more foods. He sure does like to eat though. 

Miles had his first Christmas and, just as expected, he was much more excited about the paper than the presents. 

Miles has brown eyes but they are a much greener shade than mine and Charlie's eyes.

And here are some photos of my 9 month old. 

And just because I think it's fun, here are a couple photos of Charlie right at nine months. He has a lot more hair and more face chub. He was also a lot bigger. He's also wearing 9 month clothes here while Miles still fits comfortably into 6 month clothes.
