Coby is 9 Months Old!

WOW, I can hardly believe how time flies! Today marks 9 months since I held Coby in my arms for the first time. Who knew then I was such a short time away from the monkey I have on my hands now. Coby is into EVERYTHING! While he still is not walking (I am somewhat surprised by this), he is getting closer every day! He loves to push anything that moves around the house while "walking" behind it. Just a little bit more vertical balance and he will be off. All of this "on the feet" action has meant a lot more work to keep things out of his reach. A couple of weeks ago, Coby had his first potato chip~ this of course was not a planned out new food, instead, it was something that had fallen onto the floor and made it into Coby's mouth. There were big smiles involved in this from all of us! A week and a half ago, we decided it was time for Coby's first haircut. With my prior salon experience (in management of course- not styling), I thought, this should be easy, I will do it myself. Well, in the end it looks okay, but there were lots of tears from mommy during the process. We are so looking forward to a fun time in Ohio for the week of Christmas and New Years. There is so much to do over the next couple of days to get ready, but we are excited to spend such a long period of time with family! If we don't get to post again, have a wonderfully Merry Christmas! I promise to post pics of Coby's First Christmas shortly after!

Look at our big boy trying to walk...
