It's truly mind blowing to think we have a 9 month old baby (ok 10 as I am running a bit late this month) :). Jack has taken a few first steps but hasnt committed to walking quite yet, he loves to play the guitar with Steve (he has his own) and the drums are still a top choice in his toy basket - not to be outdone by Elmo which is a big hit in this house. Thanks to Auntie Kristin we can toss the old Elmo which was turning brown as we have a new fancy Elmo that Jack loves. His 9th month was spent outside for the most part as he LOVES to be outdoors. We visited the beach a few times, went for a lot of walks, a few boat rides, and this month bought Jack a bike seat. We also saw Mimz and Pop twice! Jack likes to wave bye-bye, blow kisses, loves kitty cats and puppy dogs and riding on his dada's back in his backpack. Jack also had lunch next to Mr. Bob and Senator Elizabeth Dole in Morehead City, NC this month (no joke!). He also snorts like a rhinoceros (Steve's fav).
