Mickey is nine months old. His parents, Lisa and John, have plans for their family. Lisa has gone back to school and looks forward to graduation. John has found a better job in the neighborhood superstore.
And Mickey! He has two teeth, sits up without wobbling and almost sleeps through the night. He's pulling himself across the rug with his arms-crawling can't be far behind. He babbles and laughs when he sees his grandparents.
Mickey nurses several times a day, but he is always eager for his "big boy" dinner. Tonight he will have mashed sweet potatoes, chopped spinach and cheese. Next week he will go to the clinic for his nine-month checkup.
Now Lisa and John are eager to know what comes next.
Mickey doesn't drink from a cup-is that OK?
And what about crawling? Will that make home life different?
How can Lisa and John help Mickey continue to grow, learn and laugh?
And what about you and your baby? In the next few articles, you will learn how your nine-month-old baby grows and learns.
