Akiva: month nine



Poor Akiva, his posts have been neglected. It is a good thing he has not been neglected. He is growing by leaps and bounds. He is amazing! He is eating everything in sight.
When we are not moving fast enough he screams. His screams are not your run of the mill screams, they are the ear piercing variety.

We can not keep up! We find ourselves having to give him spoonfuls of food while he shovels food into his mouth by himself.

He is crawling everywhere and anywhere. No more army crawling for him, he is up on all fours chasing after his sisters and the dogs. When he is not crawling, he is pulling up on anything and everything in site and cruising around using our furniture as his crutch. I think he will be walking in no time.
Did I mention he talks? Yes he babbles and giggles like most babies his age but he says "hi!". He really does. When ever the dogs walk into the room you can hear him say "Hi!". I get it every once and awhile when I have been out of site. He is just a very yummy baby!

He also has a new trick. He can balance in the palm of my hand. He is a very cool baby. Maybe if enough of us ask Deb will post a picture of that.
