9 months down the road...

Despite the title of this blog...NO...we are not expecting again!
Our sweet little man is now 9 months old!! We had his doctor's appointment today and Carson now weighs 20 lbs, 12 oz, and measures 28 inches long! He is in the 50th percentile for both his weight and height; however, his head measures in the 90th percentile!!! Wow...he's going to be SO smart!! ; )
We have gotten the go-ahead from the Doctor to introduce Carson to any foods we think he'll enjoy...so long as they won't choke him! Peanuts/peanut butter are still a no-no, but everything else is pretty much fair game! Carson actually tried mashed potatoes the other day and LOVED them...he is his father's son!!!
We are also going to try to do away with the bottle...sippy cups, here we come!! We think Carson will do well with this though because he loves to drink water from his cups already, he'll just have to get used to drinking formula that way now!
The past 9 months have been wonderful! We cannot believe Carson's first birthday is right around the corner!!
Oh...and back to the first comment of our blog, I do want to say that although we are not expecting again, we have found out in the last week or so that many of our close friends are going to have little ones soon! My good college friend Alisha is expecting her second child in March-ish, my good college friend Pam is expecting her first child in February-ish, and my sister-in-law's best friend is also expecting her first child in February-ish!!! We are so excited for them all!!
