8 then 9 Months - In a Flash!

On June 28 Andreas turned 8 months, and then seemingly in an instant, it was July 28 and he was 9 months! This will be a good experiment to see if he has grown significantly within a months time. He is becoming a lot more mobile -- in the past few months he is crawling every where (although still mostly an army crawl) and now he is pulling himself up on everything. In fact yesterday I went in to get him from his crib and he had pulled himself up on the side and was standing there staring at me. I guess it is time to drop the crib down. He is growing up so fast, and we are enjoying every phase (so far).

Also, he got all 4 top teeth in over the past few months, at the same time! And, just to keep things interesting, 2 days ago Saul noticed that he has another bottom tooth coming in -- to the right of his bottom teeth. One of his new favorite things is when Daddy eats a peach or plum, he gets really excited because he likes to chew on them. I think it is the cooling effect on his teeth and gums that he likes the most, because he makes faces through the whole thing from the sweetness.
