Speaking of growth...here is an update on Jackson's statistics from his 9-month checkup.
Once again the doctor is a little bit concerned about his weight. I personally think Jackson is just settling into his genetics (what did we expect?). She is going to check him again in a month to make sure that he is still clinging to the bottom of the growth chart. With all of the overweight children in this country, you would think it would be a good thing that our kid isn't tipping the scales!
Jackson is doing great developmentally. He has started moving - I am not sure if I can call it crawling because it looks more like the worm! He pulls up on things and prefers to play standing up. He has developed a severe case of stranger anxiety which I guess is typical for this age and he will not let us out of his sight. I guess I should take advantage of it now because there will come a day when he will not be so keen on our company. We are definitely enjoying all of the new things he is learning to do and love watching him make new discoveries.
