9 Months Old..

well, lachlan turned 9 months old on thursday so i thought i would give you all another quick status update.

physical:
9.74 kgs as of saturday 5th august
two bottom teeth clearly visible (and very very sharp)
left top tooth has cut through gum
right top tooth is visible through gum but hasn't cut through yet

motor skills:
can get up on all fours and throw himself forward onto his tummy
can push himself backwards using his arms while holding his chest up off the floor but tummy on the floor
can bulldozer with his head on the floor and bum up in the air
can twist from sitting postion to laying on tummy
can pivot on tummy
can pull up to standing using toys or people as props
however, seems to have forgotten how to roll from tummy to back - just lays there and gets frustrated and cries when he works out he can't crawl..

feeding:
eats solids for breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner
eats between 1/2 - 1 small jar of food per meal
has started on finger foods (mainly bits of bread or cake)
still prefers to be fed tidbits from my plate to being spoon fed his own food

all in all, he's pretty much on average for most things - if only we can get him to sleep through the night again!
