Nine Months?

Dear JJ,

How did this happen? Nine months old-- two bottom teeth, crawling, smiling, getting up and standing in your crib?

You like being fed our food at the table

Your dad still loves to kiss you

Pulling yourself up and playing with your new airplane

Just as handsome sitting down in the Captain Cook Hotel

I think mom is trying to make fun of you 

You still don't sleep through the night-  but you sleep a lot. You go to bed at 7, wake up at 1 and 3 and then 6:30.  We hope you sleep more-- your mom would appreciate.

But you are a champ - and we are a family.  You travel with us- you eat from our table, and like the Alaskan that you are: your first meats-- fresh Alaskan Salmon and fresh Alaskan halibut.  You love them both. And your skill at picking things up and putting them in your mouth gets better daily.

Your mom and I love this-- Team Simpson

Love,

Dad
