Bath Time



Kellen LOVES bath time!!
Whenever he hears us drawing his bath,
no matter where he is at in our place,
he'll come crawling towards the bathroom at lightning speed.
He loves to grab his washcloth and suck the water from it or spin it around in the water.
 "Splish Splash" is one of his favs we sing for his bath time pleasure
 & sure enought, with his hands, he splashes away in the water.
He also loves to lean forward to suck up the water from the tub.
He sometimes get a little too much in his mouth
but he just laughs at himself & carries about in his 3inch Water Wonderland.
When it's time to drain, he loves to watch the water twirl around the drain & tries to
grab it with his fingers.
Grandma Thompson got him his little frog robe
so he gets to hang out in that for a while before diaper & PJ's.
Bath time is for sure one of our favorites!




9 Months

You are 9 Months Old!
You have a total of 5 teeth now!
You still teeth like a champ, although
you've been waking up in the middle of the night, we're sure it's
because they bother you a little bit.
You started to shake your body to music.
Your favorite song right now I'm sure is
"You put the lime in the coconut"
When I sing that song & clap my hands,
You smile, laugh, clap your hands and do your little jig while sitting.
{While Daddy is in the background dancing along too}
Right now you love to crawl up to Mommy or Daddy
and pull yourself up on our legs, wanting to be picked up.
You are saying the sounds "mamama" "dadadada" & "babababa"
{we like to think it's Mama, Dada, & Babi (for Babcia}
You started eating rice crackers/puffs for snack & yogert melts for your after dinner dessert.
Daddy asked that I put in here that you recently started throwing little fits.
Whether it's us trying to put a diaper on "double team" style
or putting on your PJ's. You try to roll over on your hands and knees
and when we try to roll you back over, you throw your head back, shaking it like
you're telling us no, you shake your hands all over the place and whine, and 
crawl away from us the fasted I've seen you move
 but
all we can do is smile. 
It really is the cutest thing!
And you started leaning in for kisses when Mommy & Daddy ask for one.
You are getting to be quite the little man with a personality as big as the moon!
We love to watch you grow & learn new things everyday.
You still teach me a lot & I'm glad that you're my little boy!
Love you Kellen Dean!
XOXO

First Kiss

Today,
 Kellen leaned into me & gave me my very first
KISS!
He didn't pucker up of course,
but yes, when I did, & asked him for one,
he actually leaned in for that
"oh so precious"
first kiss.
Can't wait for more!
xoxo
