He just had his 9 month check up. He was 29 1/4 inches and weighed 22 pounds and 14 ounces (pretty much 23 pounds). He is starting to level off and is now in the 75th percentile instead of the 90th. He didn't have to get any vaccines but we did opt for the flu vaccine. He has to go back next month to get the second dose. He also had has hemoglobin checked and the level was normal. Overall, he is a pretty healthy baby! The doctor is concerned about how flat the back of his head is still and referred us to an Orthotic specialist. I am praying his head continues to round out on its own without any help but the doctor was not hopeful.
He is getting around a lot better (and faster!). He is still army crawling but the doctor said that is considered crawling and is not worried about it. He is starting to pull himself up on everything and we got an "Ouch Report" from daycare this week because he fell and bumped his head. Caleb is also waving bye-bye but only when he feels like it. I can't get him to do it every time.
Here are a couple of videos that we have taken recently:
In this one he is army crawling. I took this at the beginning of August but forgot to post it. He is still army crawling but a lot faster.

In this one he pulled himself up on his knees to play with his toy.
