And we're moving to a different house!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
More on the moving part later. </div>
</div>

</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For now, let's look at this big kid we've got.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I gave him a book this month in an effort to distract him from the usual props.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It worked pretty well!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And then he saw it</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are 10 new facts about E:</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. He can pick up food and feed himself. He was a little hesitant at first with squishy things like bananas and avocado, but when I gave him chicken, he was all in! Now he is doing great picking up cooked squash, chicken, broccoli, carrots and, his favorite, cauliflower.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. He is sleeping with one arm out of his sleep sack, and he rubs his head to go to sleep. It's adorable. He is also putting himself to sleep by himself completely, and when he wakes up, he will often lay in his crib for a long time, just resting. Sometimes he even goes back to sleep for a while. Our doc says it's great he is doing this because he's learning how to sleep unassisted. I say amen! Every once in a while, he will wake at night and need help going back down, but most nights, he's a sleeping champ!</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. His new foods are liver (awesome levels of iron!), beets and cauliflower.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. He pulls up on things now. I lowered his crib, which actually allows him to pull up on the crib better, but at least he can't fall out. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5. He has found Grace's water bowl. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6. He understands things are funny. You can look at him weird or make a face, and he bursts into laughter. It's so much fun to watch him become a little person. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
7. He doesn't have any new teeth this month, but we are still happy with the eight we have. I bought him an introductory toothbrush and he loves it! I'm not putting toothpaste on it, but giving those pearl whites a scrubbing.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
8. He officially weighs 21 pounds and is 28 inches long!</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
9. After his check-up this month, the doc said we could put him on real, whole milk. I was worried he wouldn't like the change, but he downed the bottle full of milk like nothing was different. I'm so happy to have him off formula and so is my pocketbook. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
10. He spends most of his time playing with books and opening cabinets in the kitchen. I love that he plays and explores things!</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

There's a really nice feeling to that.<br />
<br />
Here are his nine new facts and then some pictures and even a video!<br />
<br />
1. Everett crawls. He had been working at it for a while, but just a few days before nine months he really understood it. And this video shows that at 9 months and one day, he is all about it!<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="344" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/eWeiG1s5FAw" width="459"></iframe> <br />
<br />
2. We've added baked chicken, lentils, blueberries and strawberries to his diet.<br />
<br />
3. He has learned to communicate his displeasure. Not a full-on two year old fit, but he is developing opinions about certain things and can throw his head back with the best of them. I know this is just a glimpse of raising of kid, but right now, I enjoy seeing his preferences, and thankfully, he is quickly distracted or soothed.<br />
<br />
4. He gives kisses. This is the best thing, and maybe only thing, that I have taught him. If you ask for kisses, and he feels like it, he will open his mouth in a certain shape and lean towards you. Kiss me now! We ask him to give kisses to other people, and sometimes he does and sometimes he doesn't. He gave kisses to my board president this past weekend, and it was uber, uber sweet.<br />
<br />
5. He is back to sleeping. We went almost two weeks where he was out of his routine and not sleeping through the night. We've experienced this before, where he gets off schedule, but it doesn't make it any easier. He just stops sleeping. But it tells us that something is changing and we need to pay attention. So we tried. And Everett moved his bed time later about an hour. Previously, we had been putting him down around 6 or 6:30pm and he would sleep all night. After this recent upset, we watched him, and we put him down around 7:30 or 7:45 and he is back to sleeping through the night. It's amazing how he is communicating with us by getting off schedule. He mixes it up to tell us something is changing. That's how we've known to move his bedtime later when he was an infant, and now to adjust is a bit later. We always know we've struck gold when he goes back to sleeping through the night!<br />
<br />
6. He has 8 teeth. Eight! Four on the top and four on the bottom. The fourth bottom one is the most recent. It's not in fully, but it's in enough that you can see all the top ridges of the tooth, etc. This will finally even out his smile.<br />
<br />
7. He holds his own bottle. This is new because we upgraded to the 8oz bottle, as opposed to the 4oz bottle. He had learned how to hold the 4oz, but the 8 oz was a new struggle. It's great to see him manage it now and move it from hand to hand, lean it back and then re-situated with it. It also frees up a lot of my time, which is nice!<br />
<br />
8. He loves his daddy! Chris keeps E every Saturday while I work the market, and they have a big time. When Chris is home, Everett always wants to play with him, and that makes me happy.<br />
<br />
9. His favorite games are to dump things out of containers and tear paper. These two activities keep him busy for long periods of time!<br />
<br />
Now for some photos!<br />

This video was the first time he finally got both his feet behind him, and you can see he moves each knee several times. </div>

Sadly, he doesn't understand that this is the key to being mobile yet. He just knows it gets you a phone!</div>

I think this wraps up the beach trip, but I just couldn't let it go without posting some photos of the babies being buddies. Watching them interact and try to play together was so much fun. </div>

These are the ages that Everett will be at the beach this year. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We took him to Seaside in December when he was just two months old. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We recently got back from a beach trip with friends and he was eight months old. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And, we'll be going back to Seaside this December when he will be 14 months old. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought it would be fun to take some of the same photos on each trip. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here E is back in December. These were taken at the end of our photo shoot, and he was DONE. They were also hastily shot because we all knew it would fall out any minutel</div>

I really felt like I took a lot more photos from our beach vacation, but I got home and had fewer than I thought. </div>

Our sweet hosts were so thoughtful to hang two kid swings in the balcony of their beachhouse, just in time for our visit. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The balcony had a natural breeze most of the day, and we spent a lot of time swinging. I think we're going to have to find a spot for one of these at our house. </div>

Honestly these photos were taken at 8 months and one week. On his true 8-month birthday, I realized it was his birthday at 7pm when he was already asleep, and the next day we left for the beach. More on that later!</div>

See that mark above his left eye? It's his first true injury from trying to crawl. He took a lunge into the side of a bookcase.</div>

Love that you can see the injury and the sign in this one. The glossy stuff on his face is from the balm I put on his wound.

<br />
Stay tuned for photos from our beach adventure!<br />
<br />
And here are 8 new facts about E:<br />
<br />
1. He hasn't gained that much weight, but he has lengthened out a lot.<br />
2. He has four teeth on the top that came in at the same time!<br />
3. We've added mangoes, strawberries and green beans to his diet.<br />
4. He babbles all the time and is making lots of letter sounds and combinations.<br />
5. He's developed a sense of humor. If you look at him funny, he will laugh out loud.<br />
6. He is great to play by himself. This is such a wonderful trait for a work-from-home momma. He is happy to sit on the floor and play, while I get some computer work done.<br />
7. He still isn't crawling. He's gotten a lot better at going from sitting to his belly and belly to back.<br />
8. He doesn't like strangers. He likes checking people out for a bit before warming up to them. He likes his personal space, and I can't blame him. </div>

This Sunday was Everett's baptism. I scheduled it after our regular service. Unfortunately, E doesn't love church. He is not a fan of the organ, and there is a lot of organ in a Catholic service. So we spend a lot of time walking around and hanging with other kids in the cry room. It's not that he is crying really, just on the verge.....a lot.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because of this, I was worried that by the time his baptism started he would be so stressed and tired that it would go horribly wrong. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Silly me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This kid is awesome. He LOVED his baptism. He stared and stared at the deacon the entire time. I think he liked his voice. He didn't mind the pouring of the water any more than just a little flinch. And, he even let the deacon take him, walk to the altar, bow and come back. All by himself!</div>

I'm sure I will say this each and every month. <div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I took his seven-month photos in his baptism outfit. His baptism is coming up, and I wanted to have some photos of him it in this month. This is the outfit his daddy was baptized in. (Stay tuned tomorrow for his baptism photos.)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This month the props became an issue. Not sure what the answer to this, but it made for funny photos. The sign lasted about one shot. The green thing is a pea pod rattle I gave him first thinking it would distract him.</div>
<div>

Everett is also SUPER DUPER lucky to have a great grandmother. I think the photos say it all.<br />

Seriously, how do moms blog every day??? Everett is doing amazing things all the time, and I keep thinking, oh I should blog that. But then, life goes on. And Everett does more amazing things and none of it gets blogged.</div>

So I'm finally uploading some videos of how great this kid is.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This video is called, "See my kid is a genius"</div>

Everett weights 17.8 pounds currently, and he is really exploring the dexterity of his hands. He loves to grab our faces, and he plays in my hair. He is sleeping through the night; although, some nights he wakes a little and needs his paci replaced. He will usually go right back to sleep.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He talks to us all the time, and he is always throwing big smiles our way.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We think we'll keep him!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This has been a fun month. Everett and I went to see Gus, who was totally into loving on E until I pulled out my phone and tried to get a photo. Then he was all about my phone!</div>

E moved to the kitchen sink because his 16.5-pound-self wouldn't fit in the upstairs sink anymore!</div>
