Nine Months Old!

I can't believe Ezra is nine months old today.  Time is flying by way too fast.

{I'll have weight and length stats later today}

He started crawling at the beach, at 7m13d.  He has all four central incisors now, too.

We've switched to Baby Led Weaning when it comes to solids.  He despised purees and loves to feed himself.  He still loves avocado and enjoys green beans and chicken, too.  He continues to hate carrots, though.

He's nursing 8-12 times in 24 hours.  Sometimes he'll sleep for 4-5 hours at night before waking the first time, which is glorious whenever it happens.  He's on the move so much during the day that he's only "snacking" and nurses much better at night.

Ezra has been pulling himself up for a while and is cruising everywhere.  He's letting go of things and standing for longer periods of time every day.  He hasn't taken any steps, yet, but we're expecting it any day now.

He said "Dada" first and usually goes into, "Dadadadadada," when he's happy about something.  Up until yesterday, he would only say, "Mama," if he was mad.  He's used it happily a few times now.  And a few days ago we heard, "Nana," which I finally caught on video today.

He also went to his first baseball game last month.

Only three months until his first birthday...yikes.
