Alexander: Month Nine

• Loves the theme song from the TV show, Mom. Every time it starts to play, he'll stop doing whatever he's doing to look and listen. 
• Started to balance without holding onto anything for several seconds at a time. Which turned to him taking his first steps. Now countless times a day he gets up and takes several steps before falling down. By next month he will be full on walking. 
• Tried spaghetti noodles last month. 
• Gets the biggest smile on his face when Dan Abram, host of Live PD, is on TV.
• Tried quinoa and HATED it. 
• Still teethed most of the month and is SO CLOSE to two new teeth. Can basically seem them hiding beneath the gums. 
• Went to his first, "First Saturday" event in downtown Frederick that they do every first Saturday of each month. 
• Went as Harry Potter for his first Halloween. 
• Still HATES getting dressed and his diaper changed most of the time, but if daddy puts on music, he enjoys it.

Halloween 2019

Celebrated his first Halloween a few days early because I had to work on the actual day. We ended up going trick or treating at the mall which turned out to be a bigger event than we anticipated, so we've already decided for next year to just do the door to door trick or treating. Haha.
