I wish I could say he is always this excited to eat. He's not a terrible eater, but something must be wrong with his eating habits because at his nine month check-up with the doctor on Friday he weighed in at 16 pounds. That puts him in the "less than third" percentile for weight.... Not something to brag about as a mom, but at least the doctor said he is healthy.





Unfortunately, he gets more excited about the prospect of eating cat food than human food. We have to get down on our knees and beg him to eat when it's meal time, but when it's not, he always seems ready to chow down on some dirt, leaves, or cat food. Perhaps this is why he is so skinny....
We really have to keep a close eye on him now that he is so mobile. Today, he tipped over the plant next to the door when I went into the kitchen for .001 seconds. What a little stinker.

Yes. That really is cat food in his mouth. Sick. He threw a nice fit when I removed it.

Stinking and thinking... his two favorite activities. He's a pensive. mellow little dude, that's for sure.
