Much to my surprise, James turned 9 months old 2 weeks ago. He had his well baby check-up today. The funny Dr. Macon was very happy with his growth. He is 16lb 15oz and 2' 4.25".
Feeding
We go through about five jars of stage 3 baby food and about 1 1/2 cups of cereal a day, not to mention teething biscuits, puffs, wagon wheels, lil' crunchies and yogurt melts. I occasionally give him bits of what I’m eating. He seems to like toast, peas and chocolate chip cookies.
Sleeping
I am so grateful that he takes two decent naps per day. I am even more grateful that he sleeps through the night.
Milestones
Things are getting pretty interesting in the milestone department. He has a new tooth bringing the total up to 5.
He likes to crawl all over the place. It's hard to keep him still. Also he loves to stand and walk along furniture. All this means that we are always watching him closely because who knows what he'll get into next.
He is now wearing size 3 diapers and size 6-9 months clothes.
This is the ultra cool Snake Cake that Kirsten and Eve put together.
We were so very lucky to have Joe aka "Safari Jack" come by to tell us all about animals. The boys and their family's had a lot of fun making animal masks. My kids kept me running all over the place. Jaime was helping someone move and doing scripture study with a friend so I was alone with the kids. Thankfully the kids were great for me. 
James just keeps getting cuter. He turned 10 months today. Man, how time flies. Lets see, he weighs 17 lbs and is very active. James has now discovered the wonderful taste of brownies. Thanks Aaron. He loves to talk. James has been saying lots of dadadas, mamamas and other sounds. He enjoys listening to us respond to him and gets a huge smile on his face. Other than that no big things happening around here lately.
They both need to stop growing up. It's just not fair. 
Someone at work gave Jaime 2 tickets to the Mariners game last. So we took the bus downtown and enjoyed a great game.
We were sitting in row 12 right on the 3rd base line. It was nice to get out just the two of us.
The Moose had fun on the A's dugout.
After the game we walked up to the bus stop. While we were waiting I tried to take a picture with my cell phone.
As promised, I took pictures of Anthony and the bus today. He was ready to go wait for the bus at 11:00am but the bus doesn't come until 11:45am. We compromised and went out at 11:40.
Anthony kept telling me he rode bus 157 and asking "Where is it ?"
He ran up to the bus and went right up the steps without so much as a bye or a hug.
As you can see, he has a nice little car seat. Apparently, schools only care about the safety of pre-schoolers. Hmmmm.
