Big Bruise

In addition to getting his first bloody nose a few weeks ago, of course today being opening day of the football season, Mikey decided to try and tackle the rocking chair. The rocking chair won.

Edit: If you can't tell, he has a huge red spot and bruise over his left eye.

9 month dr. appt.

Well today was a big day for Mikey man. He went to his first day of daycare. From what we heard he napped really well and loved playing with the other children. Mommy did ok. :) He also had his 9 month dr. appt. (officially 9 months on Aug. 30th though). He weighed in at a whopping 20 lbs. 12 oz. which ranks in the 51%. That's a nice step up from the mid 30's like he was averaging before. We think this is because he is almost over spitting up. He's just an occasional spitter now. He measured at 29.5 inches tall which is the 84%. So he's getting taller for his age as well as before he was in the mid 70's.

He's taken to his walking very well too. He can now walk across the room, around corners and pretty much anywhere he wants. He still hasn't learned that he can't just walk over Dad, but I'm sure that will come in time.

Mikey says "Hi!" to everyone out there!
