So Big

Our Huxey is 9 months old already.  He is enjoying standing up against the furniture and sensory table while playing.  He feels pretty confident with letting go and using both hands to explore.  He loves the rice table and gets very excited, stiffening his legs and yelling. Hux is also enjoying little vehicles and the little people.  He has almost outgrown the baby toys I have in a basket for him.  Other than the teethers, and noise makers he's lost interest in them. 

He loves to watch his cousin Otto play.  Huxey talks to Otto more then anyone else.  He finds him so fascinating that he wants to touch him, talk to him and play with whatever he is playing with.  It is really cute, and Otto has been very gentle with Hux. 

Huxey continues to work on his crawling skills.  He will rock back and forth on his hands and knees then dive forward.  Every week he gets a little farther along.  It's fun to watch the progress.

Hux has also been taking steps when you hold his hands.  He is very motivated if someone has a bowl of food as the focus.  There are some large steps being taken to get to that bowl.  He continues to love all food he is given.  Like all of us Johnsons, he loves feeding time.

Finally a bottom tooth has come through for Hux.  He has so many bubbles in his mouth he won't even open to let you look anymore.  He spends a lot of time biting down on whatever he can get in his mouth to alleviate some of that pressure.  Now that one has popped up I'm sure the others will follow soon.

Hux continues to babble and is very observant.  He can say, "mom" when he sees his Momma.  He will wave bye when he feels like it and is paying attention to absolutely everything that is going on.  I brought Huxey to Book Time at the library on Monday and he had so much fun watching the kids and could not keep his hands off of Otty who was sitting next to us.  It's fun to watch them with each other and how their relationship continues to grow.  Such loves!
