NINE MONTHS?!?!

Zach is officially 9 months old. Man, time flies.

The day we left for Aberdeen, Zach went in for his 9 month doctor's appointment. Here's his stats!

Weight: 21 pounds, 8 ounces (68th percentile)
Height: 28 inches (44th percentile)
Head: 18.74 inches (96th percentile)

My suspicion was correct. All this exercising of bouncing, rocking and crawling has caused Zach to even out a little bit. He apparently still has an enormous head, though. :)

What a cute little Monkeypants.

At this age, the doctor's office says Zach might:

• Sit well -CHECK
• Crawl or creep - CHECK
• Pull self up to stand - CHECK
• Use fingers to feed - CHECK
• Imitate sounds and babble (dada, mama, bababa) - CHECK
• Respond when his name or a familiar object is called - CHECK
• Understand a few word such as "no-no" or "bye" (or in Zach's case, "Annie") - CHECK
• Start to understand that an object hidden by a cloth is still there - CHECK
