On the move

It's been too long since I posted... And kids can change a lot in a few short weeks. The biggest news is that Keenan is crawling these days! His milestones seem to be accomplished all at once, whereas Ethan always seemed to sneak up on a milestone and I could never actually tell when it was he learned something new. But with Keenan I can tell - he learned to crawl on Sunday, April 2nd. Saturday he was "scooting", Sunday he was crawling.
Keenan had his 9 month check-up last week and seems to be right on track. He's weighing in at 20 lbs, 50th percentile, and measures 29 inches, 75th percentile for height. This is the age when everybody starts talking about how my kids "don't miss a meal, do they?" and make me feel like they're huge, when really that's just the way kids look at this age. So it's nice to get that reality check that says he's right where he's supposed to be. Heck, if anything he's "skinny" for his height. Ha!

He's also recently started pulling up on things (April 18th, in fact) so we'll need to be lowering the crib soon. If only he was still sleeping through the night in it. Unfortunately that was short-lived, only lasted 4 nights. After that he had about 4 nights of inconsolable crying, followed shortly thereafter by a 9 day trip to Oregon. So who knows when he'll settle down enough to sleep well again. Oh well, someday he'll be a teenager and we won't be able to wake him up, right??
