Tyler weighed in at 14 pounds 10 ounces at his 9 month doctor's appointment, which we were happy about. At least he's gaining weight now! His top 2 teeth are starting to come in, which will give him a total of 4 teeth to help him eat some more solids. His favorite foods lately are cheerios and Gerber puffs. He'll eat those things anytime. We're still working on sippy cup skills and holding his own bottle. He doesn't seem to get the concept of the sippy cup yet and he gets very upset if I make him hold his own bottle.
Tyler amazed us with his new tricks this week. He loves to play Peek-A-Boo. As soon as he crawls out of sight, all I have to say is "Where is Tyler" and he crawls back and pokes his head around the corner. He also is making associations with animal noises, which completely surprised me. So far, he recognizes "tweet tweet" and reaches up for the bird in his jumperoo when I make the sound and he'll reach for his duckie in the bathtub when I make the quacking noise. Tyler's favorite toy is his animal train. But really, he's not so into toys yet. He'd rather crawl towards remotes, cords, and blinds and the different textures around the house like carpeting and furniture. He's also starting to pull up on things, so we really can't let him out of sight!

Long over due
I've enjoyed reading our friend's sites that they have set up for their babies, kids, or families. I thought it was about time I learned how to create one so that I can share updates and photos of Tyler.
Tyler is 8 1/2 months old now. He has finally passed the 14 pound mark, weighing in at 14.7. As many of you know, I have been very concerned about his lack of weight gain and not wanting to eat much, however the doctor's have convinced me that he's healthy and growing!
Tyler has been lots of fun! He's now crawling all over the place. He loves playing with all of his toys. He's very interactive and alert-doesn't miss a thing! He loves to mimic sounds that you make.
We've started feeding Tyler some more solid type foods, such as Gerber puff cereals, teething biscuits, toast and small pieces of fruits. He also loves yo baby yogurt.
After going through some teething and croup, Tyler is finally back to sleeping through the night. He goes to bed around 6:30pm, we feed him before we go to bed, and then he's good until 7:30ish. He usually goes back to sleep after that until 9:30. So overall, he sleeps for 15 hours! He also takes 2-3 naps during the day.
Well check back soon for more to come!
