The not so fun firsts! :)

9 months on Saturday and the last 2 days has brought on tantrums with head throwing, refusing his night feedings and screaming while buckling into his highchair or carseat??? What in the world happen to my sweet, calm, quiet baby?? I really think he is testing us and sometimes it is really hard not to just laugh because seriously his little fake cry is too much.

 

Last night Stewart refused his night bottle. So we put him to bed and he slept all night just fine. I really dreaded what the night might hold without that bottle but obviously once again I worry for nothing because he just slept right through. Last night he had grilled cheese with us. He kept looking at me and leaning towards me as I would take a bite. He LOVED it and kept wanting more. It was our first official dinner as a family of 3. I did also give him a 6oz jar of oatmeal and a few puffs around 7. Well this morning he only ate 3.5 ozs. I know he needs to be eating like 6 oz bottles (he only gets/wants 4 a day). He eats 3 "meals" a day and a snack at daycare.

Thankfully this all seems to be normal things that go along with a 9 month old. He is getting way more independent and this mama is not ready for that! I already miss his feeding b4 bed and its only been 1 night! Im sure there will be plenty to love during this phase too! :) Even with his not so fun firsts, I just love him to pieces!
