It's hard to believe my sweet little girl is already 9 months old! She really is the joy of our lives!
At nine months, miss E...
- hardly ever cries! (A huge difference from her younger days)
- still HATES the car seat!
- still loves bath time more than any other time in the day.
- wants so badly to play with Rex but he still will not go near her.
- sleeps 11-12 hours each night.
- is getting better at naps but usually only sleeps for about 45 min in the morning and an hour or so in the afternoon.
- has her two bottom front teeth and the top two are almost through. The last few nights have been so fun!
- LOVES to play peek-a-boo by putting anything over her eyes.
- throws things, especially her bink, just to watch me pick it up.
- gives kisses and high fives.
- is trying so hard to crawl and has become very good at slithering herself around on her tummy.
- is standing more and more. (I am beginning to think she may never crawl, I never crawled and went right to walking at 11 months)
