9 Months Old on May 8th!!!

In a few short months Preston will be one! Yikes. At his 9-month doctor appointment he was 22 lbs. 6 oz. and 28 3/4" long. His head was 18 3/4" around. His growth slowed down a little and he's now at the 75th percentile. Still a monster! And NOT so fun to carry around. He started sleeping through the night almost to the day of his 9-month birthday. He still wakes up once a night occasionally, but luckily he goes to back to sleep after nursing. 
On Preston's 9-month birthday, we decided to go swimming. We usually go in the evening and hide from the sun behind a building near the pool. We are such whiteys! haha. 
 Preston LOVES his pool float. Sometimes he will just lay back and relax, but most of the time, he tries to drink the water. GROSS.
 The weather has been hot HOT HOT! Perfect for swimming. The pool water tastes good too, apparently.
 The pool float is cool because of the mesh. Preston can still splash around and, more importantly, take a sip.
 Having the time of his life!
 One more pool drinking attempt!
Preston is sure getting a little personality. He is almost always happy, especially in public. He's bubbly, bouncy, and full of energy. He just draws people to him! He now likes to look at books instead of chew on them. He can now hold a bottle on his own and just had his first chicken chunks. He is the best! Literally. =)
