Honestly dude, I'm seriously slacking on these. BUT I AM DETERMINED TO DO THE LAST THREE (only 3 left? sorry, but I am going to cry for a sec). It's pretty much a guarantee I won't be doing anything of this sort for any subsequent siblings you may or may not have. But one of the perks of being the oldest I guess, your parents put effort into documenting your childhood.
This month has been fun! You think that because you are mobile that means you can do whatever you want, whenever you want. I think your dad helps perpetuate that belief for you too. Once upon a time I read that if you tell babies "NO" with enough conviction and the right tone, they will comply. HAHAHAHA it makes me laugh now, because I've tried telling you no a million different ways and you either think it means "yes, dump the hot melted Scentsy wax all over the floor" or you think it means something hilarious and it makes you laugh. *sigh* You are seriously a P.I.T.A. sometimes, a really adorable one though. I love you.
You started saying MAMA! I'm not sure if you associate that word with me, orr if it's just a sound you make, but either way, it melts my icy cold heart. and you LOOVE to wrestle with Roscoe these days. I think it's fun that you're finally able to play with him, but sometimes you take it a little too far. But he'll live... I hope.
This summer has been really fun. We went to Bear Lake for Raspberry Days. You thought the parade was mostly cool and you thought floating in the lake in your floatie was mostly cool too. Sometimes you just stare with no particular emotion on your face, and I think that means you're content, or at the very least, indifferent, which is better than you throwing fits. (You probably get that face of indifference that from me.)
Your dad had to work but I got to take you to Yellowstone for your first time (out of the womb). You were mostly indifferent about what went on there ALSO. But, Trayton and Ridge went with us, and you love them. So that was the best part for you. The best part for me was taking a selfie with you with Old Faithful going off behind us.
At your 9 month check up you were 18.35 pounds and 29" tall! Still slender and tall. But you still have those chunky thighs that I love to NOM!
Anyway, in spite of the fact that you're into everything and starting throwing the kind of fits where you throw yourself on the floor and scream bloody murder, I still love the crap outta you!
Love,
mom xoxox
