Surprise, surprise...9 months was a lot of fun! Jack became more independent and started to show some more personality.
He's a lover of moving. He wants to dance, walk, crawl, climb, slap, and roll everywhere.
#1 Activity Table - This is another Christmas winner. We have this little table setup in front of our coffee table and Jack is standing up at it as soon as you put his butt on the ground. Obviously the cell phone is his favorite part just like it is on this other push toy from last month. Matter of face we have both toys next to each other and cruises between each one. Hands down his favorite thing in the world. It also now gains him access to the coffee table and mom and dads toys!
#2 Cart Cover - Ours is a hammy down but this one is similar. I love it. I see other parents roll their eyes at me and think "first time mom" but sure enough I didn't use it one time and Jack immediately started sucking on the handle of the cart and then had pink eye, an ear infection, and a cold within a few days....so this is priceless to me. I'd rather annoy other parents then deal with that plague again.
#3 Spin Rattle and Roll Toy - This is a simple baby toy. But he simply can't get enough. He SLAPS EVERYTHING! So the giant spinners get a lot of use and he thinks the rattle noise they make is hilarious. The tiny balls on top are perfect for practicing dexterity and he loves moving them from one side to the other. And he really concentrates on doing one at a time, so hey whatever works :)
#4 Foam Bath Animals - I bought these for myself really :). He was perfectly content with his bath chickens from his 6 months must haves but I wanted more toys for him since he loves bath time so much and now he's in the giant bath. He does play with them but he's picky. He only plays with the dolphins. I think it's because they have the skinny bodies that are easy for his tiny hands to hold or he's just discovered his favorite animal. He'll play with the other ones until a dolphin gets close enough to grab and then they get tossed aside. So to make it fair and equal sometimes I play with them. We can't have sad bath toys ;)
