Nine Month Stats!

Lon went to the Doctors today. It went well. There were no shots today. He gets a reprieve this visit. Next visit he gets a bunch. He is advanced for his age with all the things he can do! Crawling, cruising, walking with help, climibing, babbling, saying Mamma and not looking at the dog, responding to his name, banging a toy onto another surface, eating cookies, knowing what up means, (he also helps, he tries to sit up when he is laying on his back and I tell him time to come up! ) and what no means (but ignoring it). Apperantly alot of these things he should be doing in 3 months, not yet! However, I am happy he is advanaced!
Here are the tangible stats:
Head circumference: 18 inches. I have no idea what that really means.
Lon is 30 inches long. That is 90% for his age Only 10% of children his age are taller.
Lon weighs 17.9 pounds. That is 10%. A whopping 90% of children his age weigh more than he does!
The doctor would like to see him gain some more weight. He has gained 4 inches and two pounds.
Lon just woke up!
