He falls asleep about 9PM, typically near the end of his last bottle and pretty much sleeps through the nights until 7AM. And still only gets his 1 1/2 nap each day. It works for him and it works for me. :) Especially after those first 6 1/2 months not sleeping through the night.
He crawls very well now but much prefers to find something to pull up and stand next to and is even able to walk along holding on to things a bit now. He is also beginning to balance very well and tests himself by letting go of things and standing by himself for several seconds at a time. He also claps his hands together from time to time and he knows what to do if you ask him for a "high five." :)
I can't quite understand anything he tries to tell me, but he still makes "buh" sounds and "muh" sounds even a little "muh muh", but not directed at me per se. He also started a "huh" and "puh" sound today and has been heard to say "dah dah."
I dont' know his hight and weight at the moment, but will get that at his 9 month check-up. He is a very happy, healthy baby boy and makes us happy and proud every day.
So...I think that about covers Fender's latest accomplishments. Here are some pics at Papa and Grandma's house this past week. While mum and dad were away, Fender played. The day before we left, Fender got to meet his newest cousin Claudia Magdalene Cotten (only 3 months younger) and her big sister Julia Paris helped me feed him lunch.
