Another video of the new noise. I love it and can't get enough of it. I get just as excited as he does when he hears it and then mimics it back! I love that when I make the noise, he does it back!

new noise
Just this morning, Graham started making a new noise. I do not know where he picked it up or where he heard it, but it is great. It sounds like a machine gun noise:-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah over and over again. He gets so excited about it...and you do too listening to him. You can also see him standing alone in this video. He is getting really good at this, and if you put him down, he will stand there for a minute before couching down to crawl somewhere. He is also walking around the couches and can sometimes walk between things, but not really well yet. We are almost there!

the penguin-part 2
Another video with the penguin. You can see his interest come and go. He loves beating on the radiators in the house. It makes for some noisy but fun play time.
the penguin-part 1
This wobbly penguin was a Christmas gift for Graham from Uncle Kyle. He seems to really get what you are supposed to do with it. It makes me laugh. I think he plays with things like a cat would; bats it once then sits back and watches it move. Too funny. This is the first video...I could not decide which one was better!

peek-a-boo Graham
This was before bedtime over the weekend. He has such a great laugh and really gets the game.

family cold
We now all have the cold...it started with Graham, then on to Brett, and finally me. We have gone through 3 tissue boxes in one day, and Brett and I have two left over to get us to the store tomorrow. What is good news: Graham is getting better, Brett should be on the road to recovery, and well me, I just woke up today with it. Another long week ahead I think I see! I think I am allergic to snow; every time it snows, I get sneezes and a runny nose. Can you be allergic to snow? I bet someone is and that someone could be ME!
Oh, Brett found why Graham can get really cranky for no reason; there seems to be another tooth coming in! Top row, on his left side. I will get a photo once it makes it appearance...little suckers can take a while to show!
Happy Sneezing!

9 month check up
We had a check up for Grahamerino yesterday. It was a super cold day, and the appointment was right around when Graham wanted to fall asleep again, but the doctor has this way with him. He can be completely crazy in the room, and she walks in, and he just stares at her. Now, don't get me wrong, he moves around while she is checking him out, he doesn't like it when she checks his head, and uses his best wrestling leg moves on her while she is listening to his lungs, but other than that, he doesn't cry, he just watches her. Brett and I really like her, and I am glad that Graham is comfortable with her as well. Anyway, on the update:
Weight: 22 lbs
Length: 29 in (and a half if I saw it right)
The whole reason we went at 9 months was to check out his head diameter. His head measurement had stayed the same, and she wanted to make sure it was still growing; there is not usually a check up at 9 months. It is where it should be, and his dome is getting bigger to hold his brain (that is what I tell him). Everything about him is just where it should be. He has very sensitive, super dry skin, thanks winter weather and being a red head, so we have to use some heavy duty moisturizing lotion. Do you know how hard it is to put lotion on a baby, and one that doesn't like to stay still? And, he is getting over a pretty nasty cold. She said his lungs sounded gunky, and yikes, mentioned that Graham may have the "A" word. ASTHMA! What!? How? She gave him an inhaler to use to help when he gets wheezy. So, i am hoping this is a short time thing and we won't have to always have it around. I don't even know how to use an inhaler; I have never had one for myself, much less even seen how to give it to a baby. Ay carymba! I did it twice yesterday, and he actually seems better today. He has less snot and less coughing, although it is still there. We won't go back for another check up until he is a year old! We are getting there. I cannot believe it! I will keep you posted about the asthma situation and hopefully it will be a small part of his life. Our Christmas tree is still up, and after hearing this, I told Brett that we got to get it out (all decorations are down, just a dead tree in the dining room;our schedules don't allow for much time together, much less to get a very large tree out of the house). But Graham is Graham; his is currently throwing everything off his high chair tray singing dada while he makes a mess. Gotta go!
