Pull-ups & sippy cups

 First, I check out everything within my reach, which curiously - is getting farther & farther away each time...

 Then I chew on the table.

 One of these days, I'll walk around this table.

 I love my new sippy cup.  It's way fun to play with...and chew on!

Mother's Day 2013

 I made this awesome plate for Mommy at daycare.  She was so excited and exclaimed:  "My first homemade Mother's Day gift!"

I love my pink sandals.  Oh, and I really love my Mommy.

Lunch with Mommy & cleaning house

 Mommy came to eat lunch with me last week!  Apparently she was there checking out the food truck she'd arranged to come for Teacher Appreciation Week, but whatever.  Mommy ate lunch with me.  :)

 This is Mommy's nice co-worker Miss Stacey.

 Seriously people, I need more room for my stuff.  I just went ahead & made some space on the side table.

Now it's my shelf.

A good weekend always starts with a good nap...

 Mom came to get me Friday & I was out cold.  A girl's gotta rest up for her weekend!

 Daddy is so much fun to play on!

 Eh?

Mommy's fun to play on too!

Playin' around

 Just hanging out on Mommy & Daddy's bed.

 Have binky.  Will travel.

I feel like I should be on a beach in a bathing suit or something with this pose.

Plastic water bottle fun!

 Mom let me have her empty water bottle the other morning.

 So.  

 Much.

FUN!

Octopus rain surprise!

 Octopus artwork.

 Finally.  Mommy's had this awesome rain coat for me & I haven't been able to wear it until recently, when she's made me wear it...a lot.  All the adults have been complaining about so much rain.  Don't bother me none - I've got this cool jacket!

Guess what....???

SURPRISE!!!!

A Day in the Life of a 9 Month Old

 I was a bad sleeper Wednesday night.  But I know how to turn it on & beg Mommy's forgiveness!

 Daddy went to a concert Wednesday night & all rules go out the window when it's Girl's Night!  Mommy let me chew on my sock!  Apparently, we have a very strict "No Sock Chewing" rule around the house but whatever, I usually find a way around it.  :)

 Bed head.

I like to sleep in the bottom of my crib & pull my Sleep Sack down off the railing to cover up with vs. the blanket, so what?

Goodbye to April

 I'm not a huge fan of my new car seat yet, but apparently it's kind of comfy.  Please note that my left sock is in my right hand.  Oh yes, I'm sneaky.

 Out for my evening constitutional.

 So much to see!

 I'm famous!  This is in Mommy's college alumni magazine.

I am one good roller.

9 Months Old!

 There is no way I am 9 months old!

I am 21lbs, 6oz & 28 inches long.  Mommy & Daddy keep saying how big I am, I still think I'm pretty small, considering most other people I'm around.  :)  I am healthy (finally) after a round of steroids to clear up my gunky breathing.  I am *so close* to crawling, just haven't quite gotten there yet.  Daddy thinks I'm just going to walk one of these days.  I have started to pull up a bit on the coffee table, but dang...not enough upper body strength yet.  Mom & Dad have a little bit more time of having things out before I start messing with all of it!!!
