9 months old!

Can you believe it?! And we got to spend it in the doctor's office. Drew officially has his first ear infection. We are very fortunate that he has made it 9 months before getting one, but put that with two teeth that are cutting at the same time and it makes for one pitiful little boy. Hopefully his medicine will kick in and clear up this infection soon. But, even at his "worst" he is still the best and the sweetest little guy ever!!! We are currently downloading some video, so hopefully I can make it work and get a video up on here soon - nothing today though, sorry!!! Drew has mastered the commando crawl, and he has started to push up on all fours to get his tummy off of the ground this week. He is such a curious little boy - and he really does seem to try to figure out how things work. For example, if we are swinging in the swing he will grab on to the chain, look it up and down, watch it as it moves, study it... and the cabinet doors - he will crawl to them, open them and just peer inside - he just wants to know what is in there! It amazes me how he remembers how things work too - if he has to press or turn or pull things to make them work - and he can get so determined and focused on certain tasks. He also remains very good natured - generally calm and separation anxiety is not a concern yet. He loves to look at his dog and his friends at day care and when you are able to win over a laugh it is something that just truly melts you! (He had me crying I was laughing so hard at him laughing the other day - awesome!!!) So, that is our Drew-Drew in a 9-month nutshell. Hopefully some new pics and videos will be up soon!
