Santi is changing a lot lately. At his last checkup, he weighed 8.8kg and measured 75cm. He's growing well, but his pediatrician warned me against giving him more beta-carotene rich foods because he's turning ORANGE!!!! I'm not kidding!!! He's becoming a bit picky with his food, though, but he's starting to chew chunkier pieces. It's adorable to see him chomp down his Cheerios like an old man!
His personality is changing again. He is becoming very restless (changing his diaper is a nightmare!), he doesn't want to sit, arches his back when we try to put him in his stroller or car seat, and gets awfully frustrated that he can't keep up with Mateo. I feel he wishes he could just fly!!! He talks A LOT (oh no, two talkers!!!!) and is imitating sounds, which is really funny. While he's very social (he loves to come with me to pick Mati up and be the center of attraction when all of Mati's friends come over to touch him and woo him) he's also starting to get a bit of that separation anxiety common to 9 month old babies. He also shows joy when he sees people he likes, sits up in his crib by himself and sometimes even pulls himself up to standing position and is finally accepting to be on his belly for longer periods of time.
Overall, our little cheeky is adorable!! :)
