Drew: 9 Months

We're finally working into a sleep schedule. Unfortunately it starts at 5:30-6:15 am, but at least it starts with a huge, happy smile (from Drew anyway)! When the girls are gone and we're walking around, he's constantly searching for them hoping they'll pop up and make his day. He just started to "prefer" Mom, but he's still pretty happy with anyone. Weight: 18.1 lb (10th percentile)

Height: 28 inches (40th percentile)

I knew he was little, but he's just itty-bitty!

Accomplishments: Steadily sits, scoots and twists on his bum, get on his hands and knees, knows his name (Olivia still calls him "Steve" on occasion to see if he'll response to that), wants to eat EVERYTHING, can roll, but still never does, drinks from a sippy, started playing games with Mom like Peek a Boo with whatever he finds, I don't know what it's called, but blows air and spit and bubbles and makes lots of noise (then laughs when we all laugh), says "mmmmom" and started clapping

Why We Love Him Right Now: He holds onto his ear while he falls asleep, when we get him up from naps he has a binky in his mouth and one in each hand and is still laying perfectly under is blankets smiling, he'll try to rip your ear off with both hands if he has the chance, he only snuggles with Mom now, he can swipe Olivia's hair bows right out of her hair faster than you can blink, he's totally content (even for 2 hours) as long as he's in the same room as the girls, Ansen's toothbrush is his favorite toy, we love his little "mamama" and "bababa", his faux-hawk, and he loves to pull the girls' hair . . . really, really loves it!

Nicknames: Bubbsies, Drewbs, Bubba (Olivia), DrewB, Mister, and Monster
