Happy Nine Months!

This kid is 9 months old (two days ago), who knew?! And for his 9 month birthday he got to take a trip to the doctor and get told he has an ear infection (his first one).  But this did mean he lucked out of getting shots, so lucky Zach.  He is a ball of joy and we LOVE him.  There's not much to say except:

• Zach knows how to crawl up the stairs
• Zach fell down one step and bonked his head (he survived, although his parents are still a little emotionally scarred)
• He still has NO teeth
• He has taken care of his parents while they've been sick (did I mention I got a cold this week on top of everything else?)
• He loves playing with micro machines which is awesome because it means I can buy him one every once in a while and not feel guilty about spending a measly dollar.
• He loves his baths
• Zach eats finger foods, some more willingly than others.  But he is an amazing eater
• He knows how to wave, give hi-fives, open cupboards, and loves using his walker

 Here are some great videos:
video #1 - While I was sick, Tommy taught Zach how to talk with his tongue.  It is now his favorite
video #2 - Zach got stuck in a laundry basket
video #3 - Zach playing with his daddy's micro machines
