9 months

Dear Xavier,

Whoa!  We can't believe you are a whole 9 months old!  It seems like just yesterday we were anxiously anticipating your arrival into this world.  Time sure does fly!



This month we've had so much fun as a family.  You think things are funny now and will laugh at momma and dada when we do something you think is silly.  Its awesome.   One thing you think is hilarious is when we put the handle of your pacifier in our mouth.  You laugh and try to take it out.  You also think Peek-a-boo is still the best game ever invented.



These days you also love for mom to sing Itsy-bitsy spider.  You watch every movement and smile like crazy.

Its getting warmer outside and you've enjoyed going to the pool and beach this month.  We got a little blow-up splash pool for the backyard and you love splashing around in it.  Over Easter weekend, we went to the condo in Flagler and you had fun floating around the pool.  The ocean water was still too cold for you however and when Grandpa was holding you and tried to put your feet in you picked them so fast and wouldn't put them down.  It was funny.  Speaking of Easter, you had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa Pegg and Uncle Nick came down form New York to see you.   You received two Easter baskets in the mail form Grandma Barbi and Aunt Jean.  You used the beach toys at the beach and loved the Baby Banana Mum Mum's you got to try. 


In developmental news, you're cruising around furniture now and pulling on everything you can reach.  You're so close to standing up all on your own from a push up position.  We  know the walking days are soon approaching and dada is busy thinking of ways to stop you from touching all of the electronics in the living room : ).  This month you are getting your first top tooth.  We love to see your smile. 

Thanks for being such a great baby.  We thank heaven everyday for sending you to us.  We love you.

Momma and Papa
