9 Months!



Nine months old!

Yep you heard me, Nixon boy is now 9 months old! 3 more months and he will be a year!? What! really? That is just crazy. He is so much fun! I love him more and more everyday! And feel so blessed to have him as my little boy:)


9 month update
  • He loves to eat and its starting to enjoy more table food.
  • He takes 2 naps a day. (sleep is very important to him! If he doesn't get a nap he is Mr. cranky pants.) Probably gets that from me.... ha.
  • He sleep really good through the night. Usually wakes up around 9.
  • He is not really loving his baths anymore... I don't know what his deal is. He hates it if I make his sit or lay in the bath. He just wants me to help him stand the whole time.
  • Whenever I go get him from his crib after his nap he gets so excited to see me and then pats me on the back haha I love it! It's so cute.
  • He makes a fake cough at everyone to get their attention.
  • He tilts his head to the side when people talk to him and say hi.
  • He loves music. Whenever Ev or I sing to him his face lights up.
  • He loves to help me with the dishes by climbing on top of the dishwasher.
  • He LOVES eating the dirt out of my flower pot! He's such a stinker I try and block it from him and he seems to always find away to it.
  • He loves pounding on the keyboard and making music ha.




I love this song by Taylor Swift. Whenever I hear it I get teary eyed because it reminds me of my Nixon boy. It's call, "Don't ever grow up"

Here are the lyrics...

Your little hand's wrapped around my finger
And it's so quiet in the world tonight
Your little eyelids flutter cause you're dreaming
So I tuck you in, turn on your favorite night light
To you everything's funny, you got nothing to regret
I'd give all I have, honey
If you could stay like that

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
I won't let nobody hurt you, won't let no one break your heart
And no one will desert you
Just try to never grow up, never grow up

You're in the car on the way to the movies
And you're mortified your mom's dropping you off
At 14 there's just so much you can't do
And you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots
But don't make her drop you off around the block
Remember that she's getting older too
And don't lose the way that you dance around in your pj's getting ready for school

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
No one's ever burned you, nothing's ever left you scarred
And even though you want to, just try to never grow up

Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room
Memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said
And all your little brother's favorite songs
I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone

So here I am in my new apartment
In a big city, they just dropped me off
It's so much colder that I thought it would be
So I tuck myself in and turn my night light on

Wish I'd never grown up
I wish I'd never grown up

Oh I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up
I could still be little
Oh I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up
It could still be simple
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
Won't let nobody hurt you
Won't let no one break your heart
And even though you want to, please try to never grow up
Oh, don't you ever grow up
Oh, never grow up, just never grow up
