Kevin's 9 month doctor visit was this morning. He only had to get 1 shot, that was a relief, because he had to get 5 at his 6 month appointment! Kevin is officially "above average". Both his weight & height are in the 75th percentile. We were happy to hear his weight gain has slowed down a bit, he is no longer in the 99th percentile.
Here are his stats:
22.5 pounds
29.25 inches
BTW... it is unbelievably cold here this weekend. We will be spending the weekend inside, so I will post some more pictures of him playing soon. And, after his nap, Nate & I plan to start The Kevin Stone Crawling Clinic. Kevin is getting closer & closer each day and we are convinced he will do it over this long weekend. I hope so! We would be devistated if he decides to crawl for the first time at school, instead of at home.

9 month photos
We took Kevin to Target today for his 9 month photos. Before we left the house, we snapped a few shots of him playing. These are my favorites:
Look out Brooks Brothers, Kevin & Nate can have matching outfits! This might be my favorite photo so far! Thanks to Aunt Shari who gave Kevin this outfit when he was born.
So many toys, all at once:
Nate is making Kevin laugh, as usual:
Kevin is still learning to crawl. By learning, I mean he attempts to take one step forward and falls on his tummy. It must be very frustrating to be 9 months old! At yesterdays Mom's group Kevin tumbled onto his friend Blythe. We all had a good laugh :)

Happy 9 month birthday, Kevin
All bundled up and ready to go shopping with Mom:
Kev is 9 months old today. He is a joy. At 9 months Kevin is showing us more & more of us unique personality. He is very, very curious and sometimes very serious. Still no crawling, but he is getting close. Just this week he figured out how to move from sitting up, to laying down, then roll over and move to all fours. Getting close! Kevin is trying new foods all the time. His favorites include any fruit and cheerios! He is still a rock-star sleeper. Bedtime is at 6:30 and he will sleep to about 7:00.
Each night Nate & I remind ourselves that we are so blessed to have such a happy, healthy baby.
(He still thinks it's funny to close his eyes for the camera)

Happy New Year
Happy New Year!
Kevin was lucky enough to attend his first NYE party with this Grandparents and the neighbors. Lucky for everyone, Kevin went to sleep upstairs at 8:30! Nate and I enjoyed a nice dinner out and champagne with good friends.
Before we left Grandmom & Grandpop's house, Kevin had to play with his big toy again (ie - it's a big toy, so we leave it at Grandmom's house). He loves to scoot this across the floor, but still will not crawl. Normally when we pull out the camera, Kevin knows to smile. Now, he thinks it's funny to close his eyes. He is such a silly kid, we are laughing all the time!

It was a very Merry Christmas
Our family photo on Christmas Eve:
Isn't this a duplicate of Aunt Susie & David?
It was a wonderful holiday. There is something about watching a child on Christmas morning that is very special. Kevin doesn't understand all the history of Christmas yet, but he sure understands all the new toys!
Here is a video we took as we gave Kevin the Tickle-Me-Elmo that his Great Aunt Susie sent him. We must have tickled Elmo at least 50 times on Christmas day.Thank you Great Grandma & Grandpa Stone for Kevin's new outfit. It fits him perfectly and the penguin is so cute!
WOW - there are a lot of toys in our tiny home, but we have one happy baby!Sunday, December 23, 2007
Kevin's friends
Yesterday the Dewart's came over for lunch. Ben is getting older now and can play with all the toys, it was fun to watch the 2 boys together.
Saturday evening Chris & Mike came over. Chris & I went to Sheila's new condo to celebrate our annual LZHS Christmas. Nate & Mike put Kevin to bed and spent the evening playing a cool game called Cashflow. Chris & I thought we stayed out a little too late, but when we came home, the guys were still playing Cashflow (for 4 hours!)
We wish you all a Merry Christmas.
