Our String Bean

Sullivan had his 9 month appointment on Monday and we are happy to report only good things. Dave and I were sure that he had gained a ton of weight, but much to our surprise, he grew more length wise  than weight wise. He weighed in at 18lbs 5ounces (14 percentile) and 28.5inches (62 percentile).

Some of Sullivan's current favorite things include: tubbys, swimming with daddy, moving in all directions, playing with daddy's sound system, blueray player, and amazing collection of dvds :), saying mmmmm, bababababa, and facetiming with Anna and Isaac. He is a pretty great napper, he gets two per day and they each last about 1.5 hours, he goes down like a champ. Sleeping at night is much improved, too. He generally goes down around 7pm and sleeps til 7:30am waking up once during the night. Yes, it would be great if he would sleep through, but after a difficult couple of weeks of weaning and routine flubbing, I am thrilled with his current schedule (especially when it is Dave's night :)).

I am happy to report that he is pretty much happy all of the time. What a little life changer. Last night Dave and I were laying in bed getting ready to turn out the light and before saying goodnight, Dave kind of smirked and said "Oh, Sullivan," then pulled out his phone and looked through a few photos. He is an addictive little guy.

Here are a couple of photos from this week.

Mama gets a shipment, Sullivan gets a toy (box), and loves it. 

Tubby time.
