9 months!!

This week Carlito had his 9 month doctor's visit and - despite what everyone thinks - he seems to be getting skinnier! At least relatively... He is still in the 97th percentile for height, but only in the 75th percentile for weight! He dropped from the 95th percentile. He weighed in at 21lbs 13 ounces which was surprising to me as he feels a lot heavier. I noticed that my right arm is a lot stronger than my left from carrying him around all the time.

Carlitos continues to love to try to walk and we are trying to document his weekly improvement. Here he is using one hand.



He also likes to dance though he isn't so discerning about his musical taste (he'll even bop to his this crappy music) and he only has one dance move...


The big news for Carlos is that he will be home alone with the baby for the first time this week as I go to Atlanta. He already used up his mother and sister life lines. Hopefully it will be good bonding time.

Woohoo, 9 months! Now he's been out as long has he was in. A great milestone to celebrate.

LOVE the shoulder dancing. A true guy.
