He took his first step a few weeks ago and he can now take anywhere from 3-10 steps in a row before losing his balance. I&#8217;m not sure when it&#8217;s officially labelled &#8220;walking,&#8221; but we&#8217;re pretty close to calling it that. He&#8217;s been munching on every food he can get his hands on (and some things that are\u00a0<em>not\u00a0<\/em>food). Doc says we can pretty much feed him anything if it&#8217;s small enough. I&#8217;m still hesitant because that&#8217;s just my nature, so we haven&#8217;t been as adventurous as Finn would like. He especially loves when I eat an apple and let him have\u00a0the core. I haven&#8217;t decided yet how that reflects on me as a parent.<\/p>\n<p>Our big boy is fitting comfortably in 18 months clothes and uncomfortably in the 12 month things I&#8217;ve been too sad to store away. Finn and Miles were born in opposite seasons, so it&#8217;s been tough to keep this kid in clothes before he outgrows the hand-me-downs.<\/p>\n<p>During the couple days of warmer weather we were blessed with this month, I took the boys outside and played in the sun. I can&#8217;t wait until Finn can run and explore once we officially welcome springtime. I think he&#8217;s a big nature kid and I love to see him light up when he finds something new to stare at when we&#8217;re playing outside.<\/p>\n<p>Finn has the most adorable little laugh! He has one particular type of laugh that he saves for Daddy when he gets home from work during the week and it&#8217;s\u00a0<em>so\u00a0<\/em>cute. He also will fake laugh when he notices the rest of us laughing. He&#8217;s been clapping and banging things around. He makes all kinds of noises and seems to come up with a new one every day or two. Most of them are growls and raspberries and I adore it. Watching Miles be crazy is still one of his favorite things. He tries more and more now to join in the game. I think I&#8217;ve mentioned this before but Finn is obsessed with baths! If we&#8217;re upstairs in the hallway and I let him down, he&#8217;ll head straight for the bathroom and pull himself up on the tub and squeal eagerly. He has three teeth now, the last one which seems out of order since it&#8217;s second from center on the top, even though he doesn&#8217;t have any other top teeth. Hehe!<\/p>\n<p>I feel like I&#8217;m leaving stuff out because he&#8217;s so stinking cute there has to be a books worth of notable things I should share, but I guess I&#8217;ll stop there. Time to start soaking up month ten!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Untitled_0278.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2719\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2719\" src=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Untitled_0278.jpg\" alt=\"Finn's Official 9 Month Photos\" width=\"960\" height=\"3468\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Untitled_0277.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2718\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2718\" src=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Untitled_0277.jpg\" alt=\"Finn 9 month - Cute Hoodie Romper\" width=\"960\" height=\"2450\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Untitled_0276.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2717\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2717\" src=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Untitled_0276.jpg\" alt=\"Finn 9 month - old man adorable\" width=\"960\" height=\"3224\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2716\" src=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Untitled_0275.jpg\" alt=\"Finn's 9 Month Photos - Cell Phone\" width=\"960\" height=\"10470\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The other day Steven asked me &#8220;Do you realize it&#8217;s only a few months until Finn&#8217;s first birthday?&#8221; I then replied &#8220;Hush your mouth!!!&#8221; Finn has reached new levels of cuteness and bigness this month.

When it comes to my passions, I have many. God, Love, Family, Travel, Music, Design, Coffee... but somewhere near the top of the list you'll find photography. From the moment I turned my camera lens towards a sunset for the first time, I felt an intense desire to somehow steal away the beauty of that moment and keep it forever. Now I walk around thirsty to soak up the beautiful moments around me, add a spark of something from deep inside my soul, then spill it back out to the world.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/brittany.tarchala","https:\/\/x.com\/silverdoves"],"url":"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/author\/admin\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7Fhvr-HI","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"rttpg_featured_image_url":{"full":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",960,639,false],"landscape":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",960,639,false],"portraits":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",960,639,false],"thumbnail":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265-480x280.jpg",480,280,true],"medium":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265-632x421.jpg",632,421,true],"medium_large":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265-768x511.jpg",768,511,true],"large":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",810,539,false],"1536x1536":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",960,639,false],"2048x2048":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",960,639,false],"wprm-metadata-1_1":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",500,333,false],"wprm-metadata-4_3":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",500,333,false],"wprm-metadata-16_9":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",406,270,false],"post-thumbnail":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",960,639,false],"zillah-slider-thumbnail":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",900,599,false],"recipe-thumbnail":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265-150x100.jpg",150,100,true],"recipe-large":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265-600x399.jpg",600,399,true],"rpwe-thumbnail":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",45,30,false],"sow-carousel-default":["http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Untitled_0265.jpg",272,182,false]},"rttpg_author":{"display_name":"Brittany","author_link":"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/author\/admin\/"},"rttpg_comment":0,"rttpg_category":"<a href=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/category\/my-life\/family-personal\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Family<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/category\/my-life\/family-personal\/master-finn\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Master Finn<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/category\/my-life\/family-personal\/mister-miles\/monthly-updates\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Monthly Updates<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/category\/my-life\/\" rel=\"category tag\">My Life<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/silverdoves.com\/blog\/category\/my-life\/updates\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Updates<\/a>","rttpg_excerpt":"The other day Steven asked me &#8220;Do you realize it&#8217;s only a few months until Finn&#8217;s first birthday?&#8221; I then replied &#8220;Hush your mouth!!!&#8221; Finn has reached new levels of cuteness and bigness this month.
