9 Months

So Jack is talking. He can say hi, and mmbabapa or mmbabapoop (which seems to mean my bottle please) and sometimes he says dada. He uses mama for me and Grace. All animals are CAAAAA. He is a sturdy 22 pounds and officially only wore his 9 month clothes for about a week. He runs in his walker, and he is pulling himself up on just about anything. Besides the raspberry game he plays with Grace, he also finds some satisfaction from destroying and smashing things. He practices his manly greetings with chest pounds. Jack is starting to get the hang of the cup, waving good bye and picking up on sign language. He still has the green ear goo from four weeks ago, but doesn't let it bother him. But most of all, Jack is emotionally dependent on Papa. It is absolutely wonderful to see him and Papa play together.
