9 months old

Missy Moo (as we like to call her) is now 9 1/2 months old and is growing up so cute and fast! Here are a few fun facts about her:

-She is on the move! She mostly army crawls but has started getting on her knees every now and then.

-She is very fast and very inquisitive which means she often gets into things she isn’t supposed to. She sure keeps me on my toes with all her attempts to pull on cords, eat crumbs on the floor, eat every shoe in the house, and close all the doors.

-She is trying to climb things and usually isn’t very successful since she tries to pull herself up from her tummy.

-She no longer eats baby food and she doesn’t nurse at all anymore.

-She loves grapes and toast the most! She will eat most things that we eat, as long as its not baby food.

-She loves her bottle and will chuck it to the floor the instant it is gone.

-She loves the bathtub! Bathtime is the highlight of our evenings for both kids although all cups have been removed since Alana tries to drink bath water.

-She finally got her 2 bottom teeth on Aug 26th! We were all very excited and she has been a very graceful teether, only having one rough night.

-Last night she woke up FOUR times! Usually she only gets up once to have a bottle and a clean diaper.

-She growls. Seriously she looks so dainty and feminine with all the bows I plop on her head and then she starts growling at everything, its awesome!

-She weighed 18 lbs 4 oz at the beginning of August and wears size 3 diapers and 6-9 month clothes.

-She is so happy and sweet and we just love her =)

A picture from Brett’s birthday party. She loves to hold her bottle and is getting really good at it!

The teeth! Also that smile =)=)

Bubbles with Brett and Daddy. She is getting some hair. She still looks pretty bald though =)

I can’t get these to turn around but they are cute. Trying on hats at the new Smiths Marketplace in Los Alamos

She is wiggly so this is how most dirty diaper changes go. She thinks its hilarious luckily!
