9 months old! Milestones galore!

I'm not very good at keeping up with this blog thing. Wish I was. Good heavens, I'm on the computer enough, you think I few posts I could keep up with. But the last couple of weeks have been huge for Tyler. He's hit quite a few milestones the last couple of weeks. My baby is growing up!

Tyler loves to put his fist over his mouth and makes the sound modulate.
Tyler says ba ba da ba ba alot.
Whenever the Carmel car service commercial is on, Tyler always turns to watch it. Maybe he loves to see the pretty ladies needing services.
Tyler crawls... commando style.
Tyler can crawl and then go to a sit on his own.
Tyler feeds himself. Mostly cheerios and fruit.
Tyler has 4 teeth.
Tyler waved bye to his teacher and Jen at school this week.

Just over 5 Months old!

Well, I should've started this when Tyler was born, but I guess it's not too late. I'm now really realizing they DO grow so fast and I already miss the little newborn we had just a couple months ago! This first photo is Tyler on his 5 month birthday Jan. 18, 2009.

Tyler loves to babble away and is developing his sense of humor. He likes to laugh when I make funny faces or act silly and is quite ticklish in his armpits! He discovered blowing raspberries a few days ago and finds it very amusing when I blow raspberries back at him. He's quite content playing with his pacifier which is pretty much attached to him, along with a bib, all day. (We gotta wean him off that thing pretty soon). But he likes to play with the pacifier and pops it in and out of his mouth like a lollipop. He's quite good at finding and putting it in his mouth on his own. It's quite cute.

The Gymini playmat is one of Tyler's favorite amusements and loves to bat at the hanging toys. Where just 2 months ago he stared at them like a lump, now he grabs, pulls, crinkles, kicks and whacks at the colorful little animals. Rolling over isn't his forte since his first 3 consecutive rolls when he was 3 and a half months old. Although he doesn't mind tummy time as much as he used to. This is him rolling side to side, playing with his feet while watching CBS Sunday Morning. He's can multi-task!
