Aaaaaannnnd...... We're Back. 9 Months!!!

Well after a three month hiatus, I decided to jump back in to posting.  And by jump back in, I mean we'll see if it actually lasts:)  But I've posted about Summer at three months and six months so I figured nine months was a good time to start up again.  Plus we have some fun things coming up in March so it's a good motivator for me to just do it!  So without further ado...

Hi.  It's me.  I'm 9 months old today!


Woo Hoo!  Pretty exciting stuff!!


I am scooting everywhere, but not officially crawling, and I can go from laying down to sitting up now.  I'm not a huge fan of big people food.  I'd much prefer to just stick with a liquid diet.  But I do eat a few bites of food here and there just to make my parents happy.  And speaking of my liquid diet, I'm on formula now.  The doctor told my mommy I was losing weight and needed more nutrition.  I'm just a little pipsqueak to start with (somewhere in the 3-5% range) so I didn't have much to lose.  It took me a little while to get used to it, but now I gobble it down because I am a hungry girl!  Hungry enough that I started waking up again at night demanding food.  The doctor also told mommy that since I'm trying to catch up on my weight gain, she should get up and feed me.  I love it!  Mommy doesn't love it, but she does say that it's easier than just letting me cry it out!

A lot of times I'm a pretty happy go lucky baby.  But I definitely still have my fussy side where I like to whine just for the sake of whining.  I'm starting to learn the word "no".  Cause mommy always tells me that when I get into her computer cord.  But I usually just smile at her and get it anyway.  She'll move me away from it but I usually head back again in just a few minutes.  I wave, clap my hands, and sometimes give high fives.  But only when I'm in the mood of course.

Oh, and my mommy bought me this hat that's much too big.  It will fit a lot better next winter but I wear it sometimes just to humor her.  She thinks it's cute.


Well, that's all for now.  I'll report back again sometime- probably in a few months when I turn ONE!!

P.S.  I didn't have mommy proofread this, so there might be a few typos.  Don't blame her!!
