9 months old!

Johnny is 9 months old and weighing in at 21 pounds and 30.5 inches : ) He's still a big boy! He now has 4 top teeth in addition to his 2 bottom teeth that he got around Thanksgiving. He's not really into solid foods yet. We're working on it but he seems to have a problem with the texture. I'm sure he'll come around soon. Johnny isn't crawling but still going from sitting to all fours and rocking before dropping to his belly. He is pulling himself up so the doctor thinks that he may skip crawling and go right to walking since his legs are so strong. We'll see?!? He's also clapping if you ask him to which is adorable. He gets very proud of himeself! Johnny has had yet another cold for most of the month and he also brought home the stomach virus and passed it to us as well. That was no fun! Needless to say, we're looking very forward to spring and opening up the windows and spending some time in the fresh air. The most exciting part of February was welcoming home Johnny's new cousin, Aleigha Clare Lan Bittner. We have been waiting 3 years for this but she was definitely worth the wait!!! We're all so in love : ) She's 13 months and Johnny & I went to visit the first weekend they were home.
