Connor - 9 months old

This little muffin has been out longer than he was in. He's really coming into his own and has quite the pleasant personality.  At 9 months he:
- Weighs 20 lbs 10.5 oz, he's in the 99 percentile and weighs as much as a 20 month old
- Is 30.5 in high, which is the 97 percentile and the size of a 15 month old
- Head is in the 95 percentile
- So he's proportionally huge. A toddler baby. 
- He has become super wiggly and wants to get moving but can't.  He rolls like a champ and is trying to get his knees under him but that's a lot of body mass to support.  He does tuck his toes and launch himself.
- He learned how to clap his hands and loves patty cake. 
- He throws his head back (especially into his high chair) to get our attention. Especially when we're not feeding him fast enough. 
- Loves his baby food and puffs. He can feed those to himself and eats them by the handful. 
- Hates to watch other people eat and wants in on the action.  He's also doing quite well biting off pieces of banana and cheering them.
- His top two teeth are soooo close, they'll break through any second.
- Hates to be left alone or left out.
- Sleeps from 8 pm - 7 am ish. He's become quite an early riser and I am not. 
- Looves to play with toys.  He will sit in Zoey's room and pull toys out of a bucket and play for exceptionally long periods of time.
- He's really strong and has broken a few toys by pulling them apart. 
- Is a nightmare in sacrament meeting. He is constantly on the move and it is exhausting. Perpetual motion.
- Graduated to size 5 diapers.
