As I'm typing this, Brighton is on the floor rolling around (not over... just back and forth) with her favorite blanket, and I swear she's going to fall asleep! Just so you know, that will be a miracle, and really, really random. My heart is pounding in anticipation! ;)
We love our little, loud, bundle of joy!
At 9 months she:
- Pulls herself to standing quite easily.
- Crawls! (with both knees down now).
- Likes to take things in and out.
- Is a turtle. She gets stuck on her back and won't roll over. I know she can... she just won't.
- Sleeps on her side.
- Has a favorite blanket. (pictured above)
- Got over her fear of sand and likes to try and eat it.
- Road on the carousel horse all by herself.
- Is mesmerized by the Backyardigans.
- Loves her Doll (Name to be revealed in a later post).
- Is so tickleish it hurts... just like Mom.
- Has her top two teeth on their way in. I felt bad because her gums are all swollen, so I got her a Push Up Pop from 7-11. I'm going to be a push over!
- Crosses her ankles like a lady :)
- Is wearing 9-12 month tops & mostly 12 month bottoms (the 9's are starting to flood).
- Loves to share and will offer you her food, toy or finger (only to put in your mouth though).
- Feeds herself like a champ and shoves food in her mouth so fast, you'd think it's her last meal.
- Still an angel in public.
- Still a pretty random sleeper.
- Still naps in her hammock. BEST investment by far. (cheaper after conversion)
- Says Mama regularly now... but I predict Daddy or Baby will be her first discriminate word.
- Loves Popcorn Popping, I'm a Little Teapot, Patty Cake, and Up & Down.
- Has MAJOR meltdowns when you move her away from something, or take something away. I'm talking, kicking, screaming, arching, thrashing around, DRAMA.
- Is flexible :)
- Will give kisses to her doll or balloon, but rarely to Mom or Dad. (Little stinker).
- Got the hang of a sippy cup.
- Developed a fake laugh. (of course when I remember to film it with the camera the correct way, she decided to poop. Every time, I tell ya!)
This was such a fun little photo shoot. Just wanted to share a few more.
Doctor appointment is tomorrow. Stats to come...BTW, She didn't fall asleep... had to go put her in the hammock. So close.
Oh my gosh! I love your posts Jodee! You are so funny. Miss B is getting so big and has the cutest personality. It's crazy that they are getting so close to a year! Seems like she has caught on to A LOT in just a month! I love all your pictures. You're pretty talented and funny :)
ReplyDeleteI am glad she is not scared of her penguin anymore! She is getting so big and cute!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I just looked closer to that middle lower picture in the collage and holy cow!!! I am laughing so hard I have tears. Seriously. What a funny girl!!
ReplyDeleteI am loving all the videos!
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if it's too late for me to get one of those wonderful hammocks...maybe that's what I'm missing!
Funny how when they're outside the time goes by SO much faster than when they're inside.
ReplyDeleteLove that girl.
She is SUCH a doll and growing SO fast! Those sink pictures were too precious!
ReplyDeleteShe is so cute Jodee. She is also starting to look more like you I think. In one of the pictures I saw the Heit family. Very cute!
