Nine months - wow, I'm blogging on time?!

Happy 9 month birthday, Bryson Arno!  Today I figured out why he's so "slight".  The packaging on our Baby Mum Mums says "Rice rusks have been fed to babies in the Orient for centuries.  Now available in North America."  Yep, we've been letting him snack on those, so now we know. Ha - it'll be interesting to see what Dr. Bratt says next week when we go for our official visit, but unofficially my arm and back say this is one heavy dude.  He's "this close" to crawling, but not quite there yet.  And he loves to sit an explore things - he spent 20 minutes examining a Fisher Price airplane today (one that captured his sister's attention for maybe 20 seconds at this age!).  He enjoys people-watching and is usually willing to dole out a few grins.  5 teeth and more apparently on the way, given the large quantities of drool and tendency to chew on anything that fits in his hand/mouth.  Here he is, the day after his 9 mo. birthday, looking dashing in his stickered onesie:  (Amy B, these have been so fun that when babysteals.com put the 13-24 series online today, I couldn't resist...!)

3 "AND A HALF!"

This one's for you, Janelle!  =)  Thanks for B's cute book!

So yesterday, Nana said to Toriana "I heard you went to the zoo with another little girl your age."

T's response: "No Nana.  She was THREE.  I'm THREE AND A HALF now."
