Check out the video link above; as you can see, Max (9.5 months old) has some new moves. He is now crawling on all fours, and can transition from laying on his back to being on all fours, to sitting, to kneeling, to standing (while supporting himself with his arms), and back again. And he can also do what we call, "knee walking" with his snazzy toy that we got from some friends at church. He loves to crawl around the floor as fast as he can, just to do it, and also loves to do this "knee walking." And he is so proud of himself when he does it. It is so cute!
Maxon has been eating all sorts of different food, still pureed. The pediatrician told us to start trying some soft finger foods. Well, he is not doing so well with those. He has a fairly strong gag reflex, and so any food that gets to the back of his tongue, causes him to gag. And he doesn't even attempt to chew or "gum" the pieces of food. We have had one major choking incident and so now I've vowed to keep him on a pureed diet until he is 5 years old. :) Just kidding. We will keep trying .... slowly!
Max has been getting his two top teeth in this past week and it has been a little rough! He is chewing like crazy, is pooring out drool, and is VERY irritable! And on top of that, he has been congested with the sniffles. Aww, our poor little guy!
