Brodie is 9 months old!!

Such a big boy! :) We went to Brodie's 9 month check up today, no shots so that was good! The doctor was SO impressed that Brodie knew patty-cake! We were just talking about what Brodie can do and he just said "patty-cake" and Brodie started doing it! Not saying the words of course, but clapping! Then he kept checking Brodie out and just saying how smart he was! Really made me happy-we must be doing something right, huh?! haha :) He's doing fantastic! He now weighs 21 lbs and 4 oz, is 29" long, and his head circumference is 17 1/2". In his height he is in the 75%, in his weight he's in the 70%, and his head is in the 25%. The nurse said that she sees a dip in percentages when babies are nine months but will go back up.

He's gotten so big. It's so amazing how much he's grown. I was looking at a picture I have at work from Earth Day last year (the day we brought Brodie home), his baptism weekend, and his picture with Santa last month, and it's amazing how much he's changed. Just from month to month he's always changing and developing, and his wheels are always turning. Right now, we are reading "Are you my mother?" and he seems to really enjoy it! He actually sits and listens to me reading it. With some other books he'll get a little antsy. haha

Here are some pictures from Brodie hanging out when we had all that snow! He wasn't too impressed, but he's still young. Someday he'll love it :)





Here are some other pictures of Brodie playing around.






We also have a few videos of Brodie playing and laughing, but I'll have to upload them to the computer and then upload them to the blog. So keep checking back! :)
