Vanya at 9 months

Two more teeth came in: both in the top, and I'm worried that there's going to be a huge gap between them. He pulls himself up to a standing position, and can even get down from the stand without too much trouble. He also can "walk" by holding onto something. He eats three small meals a day, insists on feeding himself chunks of foods (meat, fruit), and likes drinking (or blowing bubbles) from a real cup. His babbling can be really loud.

He did really well at his well-visit on Monday. He went up a few percentage points on everything (6% and 42% for weight and height respectively), and actually is now on the charts for weight-for-height (7%). Last time, he was at 1%, and the visit before that, he was at 0%! And the nurse said he's ahead of the curve in terms of motor development. Perhaps it's the egg yolk everyday. Just wait until I start him on (mint-flavored) cod liver oil!
