Jake: 9 months

Weight: 16.5lbs (4%)
Length: 26 3/4in (10%)
Head: 16 3/4 (3%)




Well, things aren't as dandy this time. He hasn't gained much since his last check-up. That's probably because he's refusing to eat his baby food and has been drinking less milk. They drew blood (twice) for a CBC and his hemoglobin is low (~10), so they're worried he's not getting enough iron in his diet. And his ezcema is flaring up again, so we have a new post-bath routine.

Everything else is ok. Developmentally he's on track, so that's good. He's crawling and cruising like a champ. No teeth yet (doctor doesn't feel anything coming through either). He doesn't talk much though, so we're going to try to limit pacifier usage to only during naptime per doctor's orders.

Hopefully things will get better soon.

Progress on the House

The house is coming along and we should close some time in December. We're hoping as late as possible because we have the apartment lease until end of January. But we probably paint a couple of rooms and take our time moving in.

Fireplace and entertainment center - I think a 55" TV will fit :)

Intuit had a employee day at Six Flags - we didn't ride anything but Jake had a good time looking at all the people.

Pumpkin Patch 2009

Here's some pictures from our first trip to a Pumpkin Patch. It was cold and muddy but still had a good time.

Going up fast...

Here's a couple picture outside and inside the home. It's going up fast.
