9 month pictures July 10, 2011




Took Cody and Decker for the Doctor, Cody's 9 month and Decker's 3 year appointments. Decker kept telling me, "I'm not getting a shot, Cody is getting a shot." He was right, no boosters for him, but it was pretty funny, he was very confident that he wasn't going to get a shot. :)


Cody's stats:

Weight: 17 lbs 5 - 10%

Height: 50%


The doctor said his weight has dipped again instead of going up. She suggested to keep feeding him foods high in fat like avocados, bananas, yogurt etc.


Cody has had one allergic reaction...he ended up with a rash on his stomach and back. not sure what caused it...milk in the macaroni and cheese he ate? strawberry bite...not sure


His eating habits are changing. It's really hard to nurse him these days. He is very active and excited by anything going on around him.


Grandma affectionately called him the "human tornado". If you'r holding him facing you, he wants to face out, if you're holding him facing out he wants to turn towards you, so it is a continuous turning on your lap. Changing his diaper and getting him dressed are no longer an easy feat. He is constantly turning and squirming away. It can be very frustrating. But he just laughs like it's all a game!

Getting pictures with the monkey is hard too, cause he loves to kiss and hug the monkey, so to get him to just side by side with the monkey's not happening!


Cody is very playful. He loves to stand unassisted. He's letting go all the time and then gives me a huge grin, because he knows he's doing something awesome.


He loves to shake things while standing: balloons, kitchen towels, clothes, blankets, anything he can wave. He loves to do this.

He has about 6 teeth trying to break through in the last couple of months. A few days ago, his top left front tooth finally broke through the gums. More are coming in. It has left him a not so happy mood for the past month.
