Milestones

The past month, we have met several milestones in our family.

• Craig and I celebrated our 3Year Anniversary!  
• Calder is 91/2 months!  At his nine month appointment, he measured 30 in. long (93rd percentile), and weighed 19 lbs, 4 oz (30th percentile)

• Calder has now been crawling on his hands and knees for a while now.  He is a little explorer!  He has found out that the kitchen cupboards and drawers open, and loves to play in the one drawer that I let him. He can pull himself up to standing on almost anything, and is getting really sturdy.  It is amazing how mobile he is becoming.  

• Calder got his first two teeth.
• Calder learned how to drink through a straw.  What he likes even more than drinking through the straw is blowing bubbles.

In other news, I got a haircut!  It is quite a bit shorter than it used to be (now it's above my shoulders), and I really like it!

Oh, and I am almost done with my Christmas shopping. Just thought I would throw that in there, I think this year is the most prepared I have been for Christmas this early in the ball game.  It is such a great feeling! Calder helped me get it all done, including the decorating.
