Playtime!

Barrett is not as easy kid to give a bottle.  He has to take numerous breaks to play just to finish six ounces.  Nowadays his favorite break time activity is to crawl around and play on the couch!  I have been able to snap a few fun videos of him while he plays.

Summer Fun

As the days of summer are dwindling down, I am realizing just how much I am going to miss being with my sweet little one when I go back to work.  Here are some pics of all the fun we have had together over the break!

Standing Man

Barrett pulled up on his own a couple of weeks ago.  Now he is pulling himself up on everything and mommy worrisome mode has kicked into high gear to make sure nothing falls on top of him!

9 Months

I feel like I say this every month, but Barrett has changed so much this month.  He is crawling like a champ, pulling up on his own, and even taking steps while holding our hands.  He also had a great check up from the pediatrician.  Here are his 9 month stats:

Weight: 19 lbs. 14 oz. (56th percentile)

Height: 27.5 in. (20th percentile)

Head: 45 cm. (50th percentile)

Someone had enough of his picture taken!

Baby Beethoven

A time honored tradition at my parent's house is to bang away on the keys of the piano.  Barrett got his chance to tickle the ivories and LOVED it!  He was smiling and kicking the whole time.  Will he be a piano prodigy?

Fourth of July

We spent the Fourth of July at my parent's house with the whole family.  Barrett had fun swimming, and even took out some time to watch a World Cup game with his Daddy!  

Daddy's Home

Barrett has such a sweet reaction every time Travis comes home from work.  He squeals with delight and bounces up and down.  I had Travis call me right before he got home one day so I could get it on video.  Barrett loves his daddy so much! (Apologies for the loud barking dog...Bentley also loves it when Travis comes home.)
