I couldn't wait for October so I could put Hunter in his Frankenstein shirt/socks. Who knew Frankenstein could be so cute. 
As I've mentioned before, I love this time of year. The leaves have fallen and the sun is still shining. It's cold but not too cold that you have to completely bundle up.
This last week also meant Hunter has been with us for 9 months. It is amazing to think he's been out as long as he was in me and what a difference 9 months makes. He is about 19 lbs and 28 inches long.
He started crawling during General Conference a few weeks ago and has picked up speed. He kindly waited for Mark to be home after 4 weeks of traveling to start his crawling. 
He has chosen to bottle feed recently, which was a little hard on mom, but he LOVES his bottle and can hold it himself so I have come to like it. He has been known to finish his bottle and offer the empty one to Riley ( a friends son that I watch) who drinks a lot slower and still has a full bottle. He still wakes up once during the night for a bottle and diaper change but other than that is sleeping from about 9pm to 8 am.
He loves mom and dad and wants to be right where you are. He likes to join me in the kitchen and really likes to play with onions with their papery outer layer. We are in the process of baby proofing the house and learning to shut doors behind us (especially to the bathroom).
He sure makes our life busy but man do we love him! Happy Fall!

Now, he is into EVERYTHING! A few of his favorite things are to chase Mia around, eat Cheerios (from his tray as well as the ones on the floor that I don't find fast enough), shred and chew on paper, empty out any and every drawer/cupboard, eat whatever we are eating (fish, vegetable, rice, etc.), laugh really hard when tickled, grunt when he wants more food, jabber and talk, go on walks, etc.
