Gunnar is 9 months old already...

I can't believe how fast he's growing up...Gunnar was born 9 months ago today! He is getting so big and he is so stinkin' cute! In the past 2 weeks he has learned a few new tricks. He learned to wave bye-bye and he does it all day long. I love it! It's too cute. He also learned how to pull up on the couch last week and now he pulls up on everything. He's so proud of himself too when he does it! And he can crawl up the stairs now! If we're downstairs that's his favorite thing to do...crawl over to the stairs as fast as he can and try to climb a few before we can catch him. We obviously have a gate at the top of the stairs, but didn't have one at the bottom because when Ashton was this age, our basement wasn't finished so we never went down there or had any reason to block it off. Luckily when my Mom & step-dad came down on Christmas they brought the gate that they use at their house when we're there for us to borrow. He still LOVES to eat anything we offer him (or anything he finds anywhere), loves to roll around on the floor with pillows or stuffed animals, loves splashing in the tub, being outside in the cold air...he gets so excited...

LOVES Ashton, and of course Mommy!
Yes he loves his Daddy too, but he's still a total mama's boy...which is fine with me :)
He absolutely HATES getting his diaper changed and getting dressed...I swear he's worse than Ashton was! And of course hates getting his face wiped and getting in his carseat.

Otherwise he such a happy, happy baby...still with so little sleep!
I just can't believe he'll be walking before we know it...I say it everytime he turns a month older, but it just goes way too fast!

I love this sweet little boy!

You are right - he is so stinkin' cute! Doesn't the time just fly by when you think of how they change and grow month by month (heck, week by week is more like it!)

Happy 9-month birthday, Gunnar.

He is such a cutie! I can't believe he's already pulling up! He'll probably be walking before you know it. Hey - they say the best thing you can do is teach them early how to climb up and down the stairs! He's already got a head start!!
