9 months

Cole had his 9 month check-up this morning. He woke-up with a fever of 103.! Needless to say we did not get his shots today, which I think he was unknowingly greatful for!! The doctor did not find any reason for the fever...so we will have to wait and see what comes of that!!
He checked out perfectly! Still has the trachealmalasia that seems unchanged, which is expected, otherwise everything looks good.
His stats...
Weight-19lbs 4oz (29th percentile)
Length-29 1/2 inches (85th percentile)
Head-17 1/2 inches (25th percentile)
I'll have to look at Ella's stuff to find out what her stats were at this age, but I can tell you this now...Ella was 18lbs at her one year appt. and 23 at her 2 year appt! I think that Cole is going to pass her up in no time!!
Cole at 9 months is one of the happiest babies I have ever seen. He loves to cuddle, be held, and give kisses. He has 3 tricks that he likes to do in succession...clap, raise his arms to say "so big" and then wave!! He says dada and blows raspberries. He sits and loves to roll everywhere he wants to go. He is starting to try to get on all fours and rock, so crawling may be in the future??!!
We are loving life with him and it is such a joy to watch him and Ella start to interact!
PS-Ella is having a really difficult time learnign to share with Cole, and loves to take toys away from him...any suggestions???

Wow! Charlie and Cole are about identical in weight and length! Enjoy the non-crawling! I only wish we could go back there... Everyday, Charlie gets into something new. Please let me know if you get good suggestions on the sharing thing. We are having the same issue!
