What Evan has been up to...9 months

**Pulling himself up (by using our clothes...LOL) into a standing position

**Getting into a sitting position (from a crawling or supine position). Nate found him sitting in his crib one morning this week.

**Throwing his unwanted Cheerios (or other food) onto the floor while sitting in his high chair

**Cruising around his toy bin and Laugh & Learn table (with us there for support, in case he falls down)

**LOVES table foods we've offered him (mac & cheese, chicken, green beans, toast, Cheerios, rice, noodles)

**Grabbing his spoon while we feed him...this can get very messy!

Such a big boy!

Swim class

This was Evan's last swim class for this session, and what fun we had! Nate and I had been rotating every week, and this week it was my turn with Little E :) He's made great progress over the past 6 weeks, and is great at kicking in the water now!

Happy 9 Months, Evan!

Daddy and Evan

What a precious moment...

Dinner Time

We've been introducing more and more table foods since Evan has been on a non-fruit baby food strike. So far we've introduced noodles, mac & cheese, rice, hamburger, bananas, mashed potatoes...just to name a few. He's a smart cookie...he just spits out the baby food and wants our food. He still does like his Gerber bananas, mango, applesauce, pears, etc...but that's about it.

Ophthalmologist appointment

We made an appointment with a pediatric ophthalmologist, and Evan will see him at the end of August. He's had an issue with a clogged tear duct in his right eye since birth. I've tried massaging it, and no matter what kind of eye drops we have used, it is still there. He has this goopy yellow-green gunk coming out of his eye. Poor little guy. Hopefully, we're able to resolve this next month!
