9 Months Old Today!

Our Camden is 9 months old today. He currently has 2 teeth on the bottom, with 4 coming in ALL at once on the top! He loves to play with his big brother and has recently discovered the joy in torturing Oreo. He is one happy little guy, he laughs all the time and pretty much smiles constantly.

He stands on his own, and is dancing on a regular basis now. He loves to scream, make raspberries and he makes the most adorable sound with his cute little voice while flicking his tongue back and forth. We enjoy hearing his little gah-gahs, bah-bahs and goo-goos, and we have even been treated to a few priceless Ma-mas and Da-das.

Oh yeah! I almost forgot to mention that he is still putting everything in his mouth, but he is also enjoying the occasional banana and jar of baby food. He is like a baby bird when he sees the three of us sit at the dinner table. He crawls over as fast as he can and starts begging. He really enjoys eating! So, now we always put him in his hair chair to join us. This is how it should always have been, but if he had already eaten, I was wanting him to be able to play. But, he would rather sit with us and eat the occasional nibblet.

He also has fingernails like mini Samurai swords, and he knows how to use them! I hope he doesn't discover this talent later in life when he needs to defend himself against his big brother. ;) They hurt!

One thing I always forget to mention is the fact that Camden loves using straws. Ever since he mastered the art of "straw sucking", at the ripe old age of 5 months, he has stolen Carter's sipping cup from him on a regular basis. We think it's cute, Carter does not!
