Happy double-digits to Dargan!
Clearly he is NOT keen on sitting still and posing for photos (at least not at 6am).
Stats
18 lbs (approx.)
~28" tall
two teeth (bottom middle), and the top ones seem soooo close
pivoting and scooting, but no crawling
stands while holding onto things
excellent hand/finger/fine motor skills (picking up small things)
Comfortably wearing 9 month clothes, though the onesies are getting difficult to snap and pants are a little long. #shortkidproblems

| Any day now! |
This has been a good week, despite some later-than-normal bedtimes. Unfortunately later bedtime doesn't correlate to later wake-up time... he's pretty consistent on a 5-5:30am wake-up, but at least he mostly sleeps solidly from bedtime until that point! WOW what an accomplishment that has been. The other bad thing, though, is that the more sleep I get, the more sleep I want! It's like my body is going, "Sleep? Oh yeah, I remember that! I want AALLLLL of that!" so I feel more tired during the day. Still, I'll take this routine over the old one from a few months ago any day!
Eating
Still loving to eat, not much change here. He had a few nights where he didn't seem to want anything but fruit or yogurt, but last night he was chowing down on some zucchini and eggs, so I guess it was just a temporary thing. I'm still a little confused as to how much food he should be getting at each meal, so I just keep giving him things until he seems uninterested. Seems to be working out ok.

This is still going steady, and I've even let myself skip a pump here and there when I just didn't feel like it. I'm struggling with the idea of when to start weaning myself down to fewer pumps. It's such a weird thing because for so long the mindset has been "MUST INCREASE/MAINTAIN SUPPLY!" and now to try to switch that to the opposite of intentionally decreasing supply... it's giving me all kinds of uneasy feelings. I have no idea when to start or how long it will take me to fully dry up, and the idea of being done is really making me sad. As much as I have been longing for all the "perks" of not BFing, I'm really going to miss it. (There, I said it!)
