9 months old!

Another month has come and gone...super fast. Jaden is 19 lbs 9 oz and 28.5 in, putting him in the 50th percentile for both. He likes to give kisses now...sometimes. If you ask him for one and pucker up your lips he might give you one. Or sometimes he'll just do it on his own. But sometimes he's a butt and won't do it. He loves to pull himself up and stand, and just lately he tries to stand on his own for a couple of seconds. We got him a toy for walking(one that you stand and push), but he doesn't like to even stand with it yet. He just like to play with the toys on it. He also knows how to use his sippy now! he knew how to drink out of it for a while, he just didn't know how to tip it up so he could get the water now. But now he's finally figured it out! He also loves walking outside. We walk to scouts on Wednesdays and he just sits so still looking at everything. On another note, Jeremy received a scholarship for next school year and a couple of weeks ago they had a dinner and handed them out. We left Jaden with a friend from our ward and went. It was a nice night and suprsingly Jaden did well the whole time. He even just sat on the couch and looked at us when we got there to pick him up. I thought it was pretty good considering that was only the 3rd time we'd left him with someone since he's been born. He just has such a cute personality and is so much fun right now!

Great Grandpa Waite

This last Friday we were able to go down to my aunts house for a birthday party for my Grandpa Waite (Jaden's great grandpa!) It was nice being able to see family and especially grandpa. Jaden was being a ham for everybody. He has this new thing he does where he smiles with his eyes squinted and squishes his nose(see pictures below...) and he did it about a million times that night. He also loved Aunt Martha's dog Zoey, just smiling when he was by her. I want to get him a dog, but we can't have one in our apartment :( I'm glad he did so well around all the new people(and a lot of them) since we'll be around a lot of new people when we go to Indiana. Hopefully he'll still be good then!
