10 Months!
He is starting to be such a ham! It is very tricky to do...this is no longer a 1 man job!
Weight Gain/Growth
At his 9 month doctor appointment, he was 19 lbs, 11oz. They believe his 6 month appointment weight was off rather than he lost a bunch of weight. The 6 month appointment removed, he is has steadily been in the 50th percentiles. He moved from the 21st percentile to the 45th percentile in height. He has a tiny head apparently, only being in the 33rd percentile.
Nolan has this one crazy hair that is growing by his left ear. We call it his ObiWan hair. It seriously has a mind of its own, but I dont have the heart to cut it!
Sleep & Bedtime Routine
Sleep hasn't been great. Nolan is back to waking multiple times a night and getting up early. His routine is pretty consistent. He is still nursing to sleep, but it his hard to nurse until groggy and not asleep because he falls asleep so early into nursing I know he is not full when he closes his eyes. I also think teething played into the bad habit and now he just misses me. Darn momma's boy!Uncle Max has been over quite a bit for homework help and ACT prep so he has been around for bedtime quite a bit as well. He loves Max, and he is loving his story from Max.
Milestones & Likes
Oh boy did he grow this month!
He learned to wave hi
Nolan has developed his first favorite show. He loves to watch Mickey Mouse Club House. He doesn't watch whole episodes, but he does stop to watch it, it holds his attention for a short time, and then he goes back to playing.Pushing a walker
Feeding the dogs...and its hilarious
Touch Down (Father's day present)
Seeing himself on camera and talking about it.
Signing and saying "All Done"
Moving around like a crazy person!
Firsts
His first Memorial Day
 |
| Nolan, Badger, Pudge, and Piper went to my parents to play in the water (see the pool) and to nap when the cement was being ground at our house. |
 |
| putting he feet up watching the parade |
 |
| pulling himself forward eating Cheerios while watching the parade. |
Nolan had his first Cheesefest experience in Little Chute. He went to the parade with grandma and grandpa Gloudemans, went to the petting zoo with his Godfather, and ate some cheese and milk.
Petting the llama and the calf were ok, but that tortoise he was not getting close to!

We went to our first Brewer's Game. St. Edward had a reading incentive program so Nolan and I went as well. We had a lot of fun. The weather looks bad in the pictures, but it was honestly perfect. Nolan hung out with mommy, tried cotton candy for the first time, and even met Hank, The Brewer dog. 
They told us not to touch Hank because he needed us to quickly take pictures to allow the rest to go through the line because it was hot and Hank was pretty much done, but they wanted us all to get a chance. Nolan loves dogs, and wanted to touch. Good thing Hank was so good and the people were so understanding.
Nolan had his first swimming lessons this month too!
Mommy and Nolan went to Grandpa Ken's cottage on Legend Lake for the first time. We had fun boating and exploring the water. He is not really a fan of his life jacket, but he did pretty good! He liked helping grandpa drive the boat!
Nolan and Charles had a parade at our house
 |
| Watching a dvd and Badger chilling |
 |
| Nolan discovered Brittany's shoes and tried them on. |
The following weekend we took Nolan to Grandma and Grandpa Jansen's cottage on Pelican Lake. There was a lot of packing involved and a lot longer drive, but we had fun! It was cold and rainy all of Saturday so we had to come up with ways to keep our selves busy.
 |
| Chewing on a flashlight with a diaper on by head, no big deal |
 |
| Hanging with cousin and grandma |
 |
| Swimming lessons with Daddy. |
 |
| Eating guacamole at Tanners. Little stinker ate ALL of our guac! |
This little stinker would not let mommy do her chalkboard. He not only would sit on it while I was working, but he was erasing it as I wrote it as well.
He has also started begging for my food. I was sitting down to eat for the first time of the day at 2pm and it was between his meals, but he still kept coming up and begging for some. How can you say no to this cute face?
Nolan has also discovered the dog water this month. He is almost always in it and even when he is caught and brought into the living room by his toys, he crawls as fast as he can back to the kitchen to splash. Our floor is taking a hit!
Nolan is becoming a little toddler and he is changing so much it is freaking me out! He is close to walking and he is laughing and playing. He is figuring things out and you can see his wheels turning. This little boy is our world and he makes our hearts so full of love. I know this is getting long and these are just little brag sessions, but I just cant help it!
This one came out late because we have been working our buns off to complete our back hard remodel project. We are in the final stages of this (finally). Check out the pictures in the remodel post.
We also had our 9 month photos by EllieFay Photography Please go to her page and "like" it to see all her great work!
