I forgot to mention Elliot's stats last time...
At 9 months he is:
20 lbs. 14 ozs. (57th Percentile)
29 in. (76th Percentile)
He used to be equal with height and weight and now is considered tall and lean. But still has really big cheeks!
Things have been a bit crazy the last few days. My brother and his girlfriend are up visiting from NC and staying with us. Gives Elliot lots of attention, but makes him very tired also. They brought their dog, Daisy so Elvis has a playmate visiting too. As much as I am happy to not be going to work, I will be glad when things get back to normal on Wednesday.
And a new milestone...Elliot started standing on his own!!!

Teething, Part 3, 4, 5 and 6.
That's right. There are 4 teeth coming in right now. All at different stages, all on top. Could it be why Elliot got up at 5 yesterday morning and 3 this morning? I am so tired and have a horrible headache now. Of course work doesn't help the headache either, that's why I am taking a break to post this blog.
Back to the teeth. I knew there was ONE top one coming in. It's been noticable for about 4 days now. But when I went to check the progress of it I thought I saw more. So, against his will, I checked Elliot's gums closely and sure enough...THREE more on top. Nothing new on the bottom yet...thankfully.
Elliot also stood on his own this morning. Just like it was nothing. He was standing playing with his activity table and leaning on it. Then he just stood up straight. Again, I had to do a double take because I didn't believe he wasn't leaning on the table. Nope, there was a definite gap between him and the table. Then he just looked at me like "What Mom, I am a big boy now. Didn't you know?" and went back to playing. It's all happening so fast! Make him slow down!!!
And, just because....some pics from the weekend.

Summertime
Finally, some real summer weather up here!!! We've had nice walks, outside playtime, pool time, it's been fantastic. Today at the pool, Tony dunked Elliot for the first time. He didn't seem to hate it, but he didn't seem to like it either...he didn't seem fazed at all. I hope that's a good thing. I really hate being under water and I don't want Elliot to be afraid or hate it too.
Elliot is pulling up like a champ. He is also trying to stand. It's so cute. He'll pull up on the activity table, really slowly let go and then grab ahold real fast. He is also trying to cruise along the couch. He just about has that down. It's all happening way too fast for me. I didn't think any of this would have happened for few more months. I wonder if he'll be an early walker or just stay at this point for awhile?
I think tooth #3 is coming soon. This time I mean it. It looks like one is coming down and getting ready to break through. One side of his top gums looks like a bump. He won't keep his fingers or anything else out of his mouth and his sleep is all screwy. These top ones seem worse than his bottom 2. They just appeared out of nowhere.
Elvis has been having a good time too...he loves swim times. And we're thinking of going to a Pug meet up this fall. There's a parade, gala and other events. Looks like fun!
