levi {nine months}
At nine months you are BUSY.
You started pulling yourself up in your crib
and now you can pull yourself up on anything.
Nothing is out of your reach anymore.
You are busy.
Everything goes into your mouth,
which is forcing me to vacuum a little more frequently.
I have become a pro at digging things out of those cheeks of yours.
You are busy.
You are crawling everywhere.
You scoot ahead using one foot and kind of drag the other leg behind.
It works because you can get yourself across the room pretty fast.
You are busy.
You talk and pound your hands a lot.
Dada and Mama are your favorite words to say.
You love to play and make people laugh.
You are busy.
You are so curious.
You have to check everything out,
which often leads to a bump or bruise.
You are busy.
You are a busy boy.
At nine months you suddenly became very mobile
and you keep your mama on her toes.
I love that my days are busy because of you.

Those are great pictures! He is so precious! My Connor just turned 7 months and oh my goodness how they grow so fast! Not much longer and he'll be running off!
He is one cute baby! I love your blog. I wanted to point something out to you, not to alarm you but to educate. I noticed that a lot of your pictures of him are taken on what looks like a "crop" or field of some sort. I am wondering if that crop has been treated with pesticides? If so, then you need to know the dangers of exposing a young baby to that! It can get on his clothes and skin etc. The damage might not be apparent for a long time, but please be aware that there are dangers...I have included a portion of an article on the subject
Pesticides drift and settle during application. In the Antarctic ice pack alone there are 2.4 million pounds of DDT and its metabolites from years past.(26) Pesticides engulf the home and are easily tracked inside, readily inhaled and absorbed through the skin. They do harm by attacking the central nervous system and other essential organs. Symptoms of pesticide poisoning are often deceptively simple, commonly mis-diagnosed as flu or allergies. They include, but are not limited to, headaches, nausea, fever, breathing difficulties, seizures, eye pains, vomiting, cramps, diarrhea, sore nose, tongue, or throat; burning skin, rashes, coughing, muscle pain, tissue swelling, blurred vision, numbness and tingling in hands or feet, incontinence, anxiety, irritability, sleep disorders, hyperactivity, fatigue, dizziness, irregular heartbeat, high blood pressure, spontaneous bleeding, and temporary paralysis. Long-term consequences include lowered fertility, birth defects, miscarriages, blindness, liver and kidney dysfunction, neurological damage, heart trouble, stroke, immune system disorders, menstrual problems, memory loss, suicidal depression, cancer, and death. The National Academy of Sciences reports that at least one out of seven people are significantly harmed by pesticide exposure each year.(3) Increasingly, reports from many people around the country are "beginning to link feeling terrible with the fact the neighbors had the lawn sprayed the day before", notes Catherine Karr, a toxicologist for the National Coalition Against The Misuse Of Pesticides.(7) Unfortunately, except for industrial accidents, tests for pesticide poisoning are rarely performed, partially because they are expensive. Doctors also attribute them to stress, allergies, influenza, or an overactive imagination.(3)
He's absolutely a beautiful and sweet little boy! I'm so happy he's thriving...what a joy I can tell he is! He's always SO happy in those pictures! Just love him!Big hugs to you all!
Levi is so precious!!
Levi, you are such a handsome and sweet boy! We're so glad your mommy shares you with us.
I was just thinking of your big sister today, and praying for your family. There are just some days when God puts you Macs big on my heart.
Those pictures are beautiful! Such a darling little boy!

Beautiful boy.....you are blessed !
Wow- I can't believe Levi is 9 months!!! What a beautiful post!
oh wow! We have a lot to look forward to. When you mentioned digging things out of those cutie cheeks it hit me that I'm sure I will be doing the same thing in about three short months too. Wow! He is so, so cute! Kelly

Happy 9 months, Levi! He is getting so big!
