- Pulled something off the coffee table for the first time
- Started eating okra, honeydew, white potatoes, & graham crackers (well, sometimes he put these in his mouth)
- Started having 3 baths a week
- Started sleeping with his bottom up in the air & I stopped turning him over since he obviously preferred this way
- Started holding his ears when eating solids and drinking from the bottle
- Reduced his milk at every feeding so he would eat more solids (increased to 6-8 Tablespoons)
- Discovered his rainforest crib toy because he didn't want to sleep in the afternoon some days
- Fell off our bed for the 1st (& hopefully only) time. He'd taken a nap on there the day before while we were getting ready to go. We were going to let him do that again. I was in Luke's room, Matt was in the garage. I went into the kitchen & Luke was crawling around his highchair. I asked Matt why he got him down (b/c he was supposed to be going to sleep). He looked at me with wide eyes, knowing he didn't get him down, and now that I had not gotten him down either. I had heard a loud cry that lasted @ 2 sec. & I just thought he'd seen Matt & he was still in that I'm not going to give in to sleep faze. I never heard a big boom!
Had a very fashionable Momma! The t-shirt and slippers were add-ons after church.
Played
Took our Christmas card picture. His matching hat was too small :0)
Got a special package in the mail!!
Got his first major cold! Despite suctioning right before bed, he'd wake up with a crusty little nose. Thankfully his fever didn't get very high! 
As you can see, he outgrew his playmat. So it was replaced....
with a new jungle toy. He started pulling up all the time on this & if he was next to somebody.
We came back and had oh so yummy cake from Julia's Bakery!
Outgrew his 9 month clothes- the one piece outfits were the worst!
These pajamas were the first 12 month clothes he wore.
Matt and I went to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory with Neal & Shaunda. It was fun having a double date and going to one of my favorite places!
Luke got to hang out with Grampa & Grammie while we were gone.
Got his first major cold! Despite suctioning right before bed, he'd wake up with a crusty little nose. Thankfully his fever didn't get very high! As you can see, he outgrew his playmat. So it was replaced.... with a new jungle toy. He started pulling up all the time on this & if he was next to somebody. Awww yes, he was in his first wreck. It involved BOTH of our parent's cars!! We had borrowed 'Blue' from my parents so that we'd have enough room to tote presents & all of our luggage over for our Christmas in a few days. Matt's parents came over for a birthday celebration. We all got to ride together to dinner since we had a big vehicle. As we were backing out of the driveway, suddenly their car appeared :0) Thankfully the only injuries were 2 bumpers!
We came back and had oh so yummy cake from Julia's Bakery!Showed me I was REALLY behind on dusting!
Was so cute!
Rory the Rocking Lion was one of Luke's favorites!
Silly Daddy :0)
Jasie was just as sad as us about the loss that knocked us out of playoff contentions.
