It's been a slow week for us, not many activities going on.

Which is actually nice, because we've had a chance to come home & just relax during the week.

And that does NOT happen often!!

These are some random early morning pics of the Lil Man.
(He sure is using that left hand more often...)

How can you NOT have a great week when

it starts with looking at this sweet face?!!

We have another boy badge....

Cason LOVES to play in the tub - absolutely LOVES it!!

Last night, he was pulling up in the tub

(under strict Mommy supervision, of course)

and letting go to fall on his booty and make a big splash.

Well, one time, we stood up, let go and made a splash

but fell too far back. When he sat up to try and grab the side of the tub,

his hands slipped and his head hit the tub instead.

He has a little cut above his left eye that bled just for a few minutes,

and underneath it's a little purple-ish blue.

But this morning, he's happy as a clam.

It's still a little blue, but he was good-to-go!!

You can definitely see (and feel) that fall is here!

It was only 44 degrees this morning. WOW!!

Looks like Momma G had some fun putting out her fall decorations.

This was her front porch this morning when arrived to bring Cason.

We went to see Cason's pediatrician Dr. Johnson on October 6

for our 9 month check up.

Cason is a healthy 28.5 inches long & a hefty 23 pounds!!

That means we're getting taller and not missing many meals!

We were ALL happy to hear that we're caught up on our immunizations so that meant NO SHOTS!! Well, except for one. We had to get the flu shot booster, and go back in 30 days for the other shot. Cason was a cutie pie too because he literally fell asleep in Daddy's lap while talking football with Dr. Johnson. So Daddy handed him to me and he got partially redressed, but left his jeans off for the booster shot in his left leg. =o(

Celina, Dr. Johnson's nurse, requested that we wake him up a little bit because she didn't want to give him his shot while he was asleep. (It makes babies heart rate jump to give a shot when they're sleeping and she prefers not to do that - and we appreciate that!!)

We tried to wake him up, even laid him on his back, but he only stirred a little bit. So we tried to make him sit up and frankly, that just ticked him off, but enough to keep him awake for a few seconds to get the shot. He was more upset that we had woken him up than he was about the shot. Then he crashed!!!

..... see I thought this was a marshmallow!!!

Silly little man.....

Oh, how fast time flies!!

Our sweet little miracle baby is 9 months old today.

Thank you Lord for our many, many blessings.
