where the freak has time gone?
everton has become what my mom likes to say in filipino regarding him or me when i was a baby...
MALIKOT!
MALIKOT!
it means naughty.
he's getting into everything. he's mastered the art of crawling after turning 8 months and he's unstoppable.
my days consist of everton pulling himself up to the couch, him feeling confident enough to let go, resulting in him falling and bonking his head. i then scoop him up, rub his head, tell him he's still alive, and give him lots of kisses and cuddles.
REPEAT PROCESS.
all day.
he has scrapes and bruises on his noggin, with me gettin some extra baby lovin.
i just took him to his 9 month appt today and he's now 18.4 lbs and is 27 1/2 in long.
he's still considered teeny for his age but at least he's growing somewhat! but one thing that's a little problematic is that he's pretty low in iron. with a small change in his diet and some drops the doc gave us, everton should be good. i had no idea how up and down a baby's development and health can go. but other than that, everything looks great. and for that, i'm totally thankful.
along with the checkup from the doc comes with the dreaded shots!
poor baby. he's takes em like a man though, he'll cry for a good few minutes then brush it off. and they gave him WOLVERINE band aids! and i got totally jealous.

everton also helps me clean the kitchen!
psych. he just likes looking at the baby in the oven.
lemme tell ya, these month by month pics are getting harder and harder to do. it's when he started to crawl and roll over i couldn't have him laying down anymore. so since month 8 i've been having him sit up. but even that's been complicated. i'm starting to think about duct taping the child to the wall so he'll stay still.
here's some behind the scenes pics in our monthly photoshoot.
here's my lovely fabric background, waiting to be wrinkled and puked on.
brett's been dubbed as the baby wrangler/treat giver when a certain baby starts whining or gets tired.
everton gets treats too...
batang malikot!
wrong way buddy.
he's seriously the worst model ever.
LOL!! I love that boy!
ReplyDeletehahaha I love that cheesy smile. And I love how he's holding a towel while looking at his own reflection on the stove. It's like he's using the towel to make the surface a little more cleaner so he can see himself better. hahaha
ReplyDeleteHe's soooo cute!! Apollo finally mastered crawling too, and now there is no stopping him! He's sooo much fun. It's nice that he can play all by himself now. :) such cuties. You are so good about taking pictures. I swear I've taken like three this week.
Deleteoops... i dn't know how i did that... :)
