A Big Boy

We had James' 9 month check up last week. Nothings really changed. He is between 18 and 19 pounds, we don't really know how much exactly because he wouldn't hold still on the scale. He kept kicking his legs. So that is still the 25th percentile for his weight. He is 29 inches tall which is the 75th percentile for his height. He had his flu shot and the nurse gave him a sucker. He loved it!


We finally sold the truck. Someone from Doug's work bought it for $400 which we spent on tires and a tune up for the Honda. We think that he got a pretty good deal on the truck but we don't really want to put out the effort to sell it or fix it so we're just happy that we don't have to worry about it anymore.


James decided that he is a big boy and wants to do everything by himself. Mostly we don't really mind but when it comes to his favorite, oatmeal, it gets a little messy.






James loves playing with Loa. I often find them together doing mostly whatever Loa finds interesting. He gets really mad though when we give him a cracker and Loa takes it from him. So Doug gave him a cracker and had him sit on the couch with him while Loa sat on the floor begging. James kept leaning forward and showing Loa his cracker then putting it in his mouth. We thought it was so funny that James would tease Loa but then Loa won in the end.

I am glad to see that you have taught James to share! Although I never considered it, I guess one way to avoid pet allergies is to feed your kids food from the dogs mouth!

By the way, Eliza's due date was April 23rd. How ironic!
