Preston- 9 months old .... a little late

Finally, I am adding Preston's 9 month old pictures! It's amazing how the days fly by and now Preston is 9 1/2 months old! Preston is cutting two new teeth to make a total of 8 teeth. He is now babbling all the time. We really enjoy listening to him while he jabbers on while talking to everything. He is also pulling up on everything and cruising along. He can clap and he will play with a toy that has buttons and when it lights up he will wave his hands in the air and then clap for himself. He is crawling around every where and it seems like each day he is discovering new things. He loves to open the kitchen cupboards and pull things out of them. He also loves to stand at our glass door or sliding glass door and look outside while banging on the door (especially when Dallas is out there). He is also giving a little "snarling" smile as he grimaces his face up and he loves to give kisses as well. Some other things he has discovered and loves are the toilet, our roman tub faucet, toilet paper, garbage cans, any sort of tool that Carl has, the vacuum, and many others. He loves water and discovered that there is always water in the toilet to splash in.... so much fun! He also pulls on the lever to flush the toilet and then looks to see if the water goes down. Toilets are amazing, right? One of his all time favorite things though are little boys (and girls but he loves little boys). We can be in a restaurant or a store and his eyes will be glued to any little boy he sees. 9 months is a fun age although plenty of work for me! He is 20 lbs 12 ounces and 29 inches long. Taking pictures of him in our glider is getting more and more difficult since Preston is very busy and wants to see everything. He actually fell out of the chair while I took this pictures although he didn't seem to mind much.

Cute smile...

Reading... the sign also makes it hard to take pictures

Preston loves to climb as you can see
