It's amazing to me how the Lord makes each of us so unique. I am constantly amazed how two boys who came from the same two parents and have been raised the exact same way can be so different. As I watch Oliver grow, I am surprised by how quickly he catches onto new things and is hitting his milestones so much earlier than Owen. I know part of it is being a 2nd child, but it's also due to Owen's delays.
Oliver has now reached the 9 month mark!! In 3 short months, we'll be celebrating his 1st birthday..I still can't believe it! Little guy is growing so much..I just love it!
This month, he is...

| At his 1st UNC game, Sept. 6th |
- 20 lbs (42 %tile) and 30 in tall (94 %tile) with a head of 18 3/8 in (86 %tile) so he's long and lean with a big head. :)
- wearing 9-12 month clothes (but is quickly growing out of them)
- always moving..he is crawling on his hands and knees now, but if he wants to go somewhere fast he reverts back to army crawling
- pulling to his feet on anything whether it moves or not. He has quite a number of tumbles trying to get on something that has moved in the process, but he takes it all in stride.
- starting to walk along the furniture
- now getting one bottle of formula in the late morning while at the Y. (My schedule at preschool didn't coordinate with his and I wasn't finding time to pump/making enough to supply him so we've gone to formula for that feeding.) He is doing rather well with the bottle now and I'm very thankful.
- having serious separation anxiety at the Y and poor thing has cried off and on most mornings for the last 2 weeks there.
- need of a haircut around his ears but I'm refusing to cut it yet.
- currently obsessed with black beans and pears.
- in love with his brother and wants to be where he is/play with what he has/kiss him/wrestle with him
- loves when people blow bubbles..he thinks it's hilarious
- loves riding in the Cozy Coupe
