Niko's 9 month update(pics included)

Hey ladies! Niko told me to update his OH aunties on his progress.

He is 20 lbs and 31.5 inches long(all legs just like Daddy--hehe)
He is his two bottom front teeth and is working hard on the front two.(keeping Mom awake)
He can crawl on all fours, but prefers army crawling because it's way faster.
He is puling himself up on everything and started cruising the sectional this morning.(oh boy!)
He says Mama, Dada, and Alex to the correct person. He also calls to the dog, but says "Gawg"
He giggles a lot.
He eats food three times per day and has started kind of using sippy cups instead of bottles.
Separation anxiety is in full force(just in time for Daddy to away for three weeks---Ugh)
He ADORES his big brother.
And he wants everyone to know that  he "DON'T NEED NO STINKING NAPS!!!" at least that's what he keeps telling me.

Here's the good stuff.

My sis is holding him.

 

 

I think this pic is hilarious because he looks like a little old man.


See the devilment?...and the teeth?

and finally---one of my all time favorites

    Big Bro Alex  being goofy wth Niko....no he wasn't licking his ear. He was making funny noises at him...hehe. I love my boys!     Thanks for looking. Niko sends you all snuggles.   Angie

Oh he is just too flippin cute!!! Thanks for sharing :)

Alex is a cutie too!

Thanks! Alex is a especially cute around his baby brother.

Angie

He's so cute...and squeezable like my daughter is.. Love the pictures.

Thanks. Yeah- we love to squeeze him, even though he's getting into that "I don't wanna be squeezed." stage.

I cant beleive its been 9 months, wow. Quade uses that same quote about naps :) he also says '5 minutes for 5 hours' short naps :)

He is soo cute. I  have an older son too and love when they bond, its so cute to see the big ones just cave to their little brothers.
thanks for sharing.

I know---time goes by fast! Alex does completely cave. He's been wrapped around Niko's finger since the day he was born. I love it.

Thanks for looking.

Niko is adorable, Angie!  I can't believe how freaking long he is!!  Libby will hopefully have her 9 month check-up on Thursday, so I will report after that. :-)

He is long----all legs. It's so funny. I already feel like a hobbit with Dave and Alex....guess I'm gonna have another tree in my forest...lol. Libby is so cute. You better put pics in her update.

Angie

LOL  I am hoping Libby is taller than I am, even though I am almost 5'5.  Russ' family tends to be on the taller side.
I will definitely include pictures.  I got some super cute ones of her on the boat on Sunday and last night reading a book in her pack n play.

To hold you over a few days ;-)
