My son just turned to 9 months two days ago :) Its amazing how fast he has grown and learned so many things already! Now his crawling and has taken some few steps by his own! He stands up straight from the ground without holding anything and stands for very long time. He can say some few words in Finnish (dog, no, finished, bellybutton and nam- nam, if thats a word :D it means that someone is eating). Then he says papa and bye-bye in english, we talk 2 language here :)
He also understand very many words, atleast 15!

This what comes to my mind now...

My guy will be 9 months on the 19th and can't do most of what your kids can do. He doesn't crawl, says no words, can't wave or clap. He CAN pull himself up to standing. He has 2 teeth with 2 more about to pop thru any minute now. He also eats EVERYTHING...eggplant, stuffed mushrooms, salmon. Seriously, this boy can eat.

Joshua will be 9 months tomorrow and he crawls but when he wants to get somewhere really fast he army crawls. he waves bye-bye and is almost clapping, (i think, it looks like he is trying) he pulls himself up on everything, he says mama and dada, he has 2 teeth on the bottom and the top one looks like its going to come in soon.

My Nathanyl won't be 9mos until the 25th and isn't crawling yet...but getting closer every day! He can scoot and spin around on his belly. He sits like a pro...and rotates to reach what he wants by pulling in one foot, leaning forward while shifting his weight then sitting back down...LOL...it is the funniest thing to watch! He can pull himself up to standing on most things(which he wants to do all the time)...I am his favorite jungle gym... can walk along the couch unassisted or take a few steps holding my hands. He says mama and dada...and understands no even if I do just get a evil grin and he goes back to what he was reaching for!!! Still breastfed and no teeth, but eats cherios, mum mum crackers, grilled cheese sandwiches, yogurt, and any fruits or veggies (except broccli) in bite size pieces...he LOVES kiwi! He is my second child after a long break (12yrs) and it still amazes me how fast it goes by...exciting but sad at the same time!

My son was 9 months on the 8th. He is crawling and pulling up to stand. Has 2 bottom teeth and teething again. He doesn't say any words yet but probably because his sister does all the talking :) He eats table food and detests baby food. He is

30 1/2" tall and almost 22 pounds. He also plays really well by himself. I can't believe all these little ones will be 1 in 3 months!

My baby girl was 9 months on the 5th. She is army crawling everywhere, pulling herself up on everything, and walking around everything. She has 6 teeth, says mama and dada. She loves to wave and smiles at everyone. She loves her sippy cup and can eat on her own when she wants too. She is a very good baby and is content just about anywhere that you put her. She is growing to fast and I can't believe it!

My little guy turned 9 months today! He now weighs 25.4 lbs and is 30 inches long. He is crawling and started pulling himself up, but not all the time yet. He likes to kneel while leaning against our glass door to look out the window. He has one tooth with another on the way. He says mama and dada but that's it. I think he's waved a few times recently, we are still workign on it. We are working on the sippy cup, btu he really doens't like it too much. He loves to feed himself with his hands as well. Hmm . . . it seems liek he's changing every day. Over one weekend he started crawling, got a tooth, started feeding himself and then a few days later pulled himself up. I was shocked how fast he did it all! He's growing up too quickly!!!! I'm excited yet sad all at once!

Caleb is 9 months today!! Can't believe it. He is army crawling all over the place but hasn't quite worked out how to get in and out of a sitting position, or pull himself to stand. He says mama and dada and is starting to say what sounds like "more" when eating something he likes. He has 4 teeth and is also starting to high five. So cute!

My baby boy is just 9 months. He can crawl everywhere, pull himself into a standing position and walk a couple of steps while holding on. He doesn't have any real words yet, but has a huge vocabulary all his own!!! He totally understands no, can eat all sorts of things by himself (just not with a spoon, yet), and claps all the time when he does something he thinks we should notice and praise. He just learned how to way bye and drinks out of a sippi cup like a pro. It's amazing how wonderful he is.

Jakobie will be 9 months on the 8th of this month. He has been doing the army crawl for about a month and half now and is pulling up to stand on somethings. He will walk with me holding his hands but doesn't cruise yet by himself. He has 2 bottom teeth with more on the way!

Maddie is only just 8 months, she'll be 9 on the 26th june. She just started pulling herself up to stand, and can sit up and crawl properly but prefers to army crawl really fast! She waves sometimes... says mumum, bub, nanan (meaning food not nanna lol)... and her hair is now long enough to tie up; so cute!!
Maddie's still breastfed a lot during the day and once in the night, and eating one or two bowls of fruit, rice cereal etc in the day too.
She loves other babies!!

Oh wow. How cute to everyone's bubs. I see that they are all understanding no....this is a good thing.

My little guy won't be 9 months until the end of the month. He crawls and pulls himself up on everything, takes steps with help. He can say mama dada and yum, but really is more interested in moving than talking, he does wave hi to people he likes. He has 1 tooth, loves cheerios and biter biscuits and can use a sippy. He also knows what no means and that if he hears his full name, he's in trouble.

My daughter is two weeks behind your daughter but she is pulling herself up and taking 1-2 steps while holding on. She waves bye-bye and says mama. She also understand what I say and will get things for me and come when I ask her to. She doesn't have any teeth yet but can eat most things due to the fact that babies don't chew with their teeth they gum everything.

wow.... 9 months as flown by!!!

my little man will be 9 months this coming weekend.... he is crawling all over the place, trying to pull himself up to stand (but hasn't quite got that yet), but he will stand and take a step or two while holding on to my hands.

He says mum & dad.... but that's about it... other than babbling.

He somewhat (when he wants to... lol) understands "no". When i tell him no he stops what he is doing, looks at me and usually goes on to something else..... or he will test me a just keep doing what i don't want him to....lol!

He is feeding himself crackers and cheerio's.... which was a big thing cause he was not interested in this at all before.... now just to master the sippy cup.....
