9 months!

I've been slacking on the blog lately but at least you know you'll get the monthly update on Miss Annie.

 (She looks ginormous here!)

Annie at 9 Months:

*She doesn't show much interest in crawling. She'd much rather just roll everywhere.

*Hasn't really pulled herself up to the standing position either. I'm OK with that!

*She has sat up by herself from lying down. (only twice)

*She loves to try to stand by herself.  She'll keep trying to push my hands away when I'm holding her in a standing position.

*I've been working on "kisses" with her.  For the first time last night she leaned over to give me a "kiss"  It was adorable and it made my day!

*She has been a bit clingy and grumpy the past couple days. She could be getting more teeth?

*She only had her two bottom teeth so far.

*She is a good eater but still loves to have a bottle. She can feed herself little snacks.

*She's a good napper as well, but if her morning schedule gets thrown off (Thursday's for Sam's preschool and Sunday's early church) The rest of her day doesn't go real smooth.

*She loves to growl.  She'll also say the sounds "da da da" and "ba ba ba"

*I haven't taken her to her 9 month check up but we weighed her on our scale and I think she weighed 22 lbs.

*She is wearing clothes that Carly wore when she was 18 months.

*She loves to be swung around.

*She is quite difficult to get to laugh. You really have to work at it sometimes.

*She is still leery of other people besides Chad and I.

I think I say this every month but I am just so grateful that she came into our family! We just love her to pieces and I seriously can't kiss and love on her enough!
