Cole and Casey

Cole is 9 months old today and enjoying every minute of it. At this point last month, Cole had just started crawling and within the past 4 weeks he has only continued to master the art and increase his speed (which has put his folks in a constant state of alertness). Taking your eyes off of the young boy for only a moment can allow him to slip into another room to go exploring. A zone defense is what seems to work with one parent picking up the target as the other calls out such phrases as "Coming to you", "Pick him up" or "Bogey at 12 o'clock".

While Cole has continued to improve his crawling skills, he added yet another item to his impressive bag of tricks. He is now pulling himself up into a standing position while holding on to something (table, couch, dog, etc). How he will get down from standing is always entertaining to watch. Some days he will very carefully drop to one knee and then crawl away while other instances see him simply fall backwards with complete faith that he will plop down on his backside.

As the weather continues to warm up, Cole is spending more and more time outside. While at school he loves to interact with his friends while catching some rays and on the weekends he loves to go for walks in either his stroller or wagon.

Cole spent the morning helping out Mom and Dad sell items at a garage sale and then attended his good friend, Ainsley Bennett's, 2nd Birthday party. Here are a few pics from the day.

We can't wait to see what the next month holds.

As always... here is the updated look back at 9 months
