9 Months Old

Happy 9 Months Mallory Ann! Here are some pictures taken of you on your 9 month birthday. We were at the lake relaxing so you aren't wearing a lot of clothes :)





At 9 months old you are into everything. There isn't anything you can't get to. You go head first down steps, slide on your belly, and hoist yourself up over any obstacles. You especially love to unroll toilet paper (like a puppy!) and climb through the baby gate to climb on top of your 100 pound dogs. You have started standing by yourself without holding on to anything, and you like to crawl in a pike position so that your knees don't hurt. You love to eat but do not like baby food. Your current faves are still bananas and cheese and grilled cheese. We have started the weaning process and you are doing pretty well with your bottles. You jabber and screech all day long but the only real intentional word you use is "Mama". You figured out how to use that one pretty quickly :) We have also heard you say Papa, and Pey Pey. You love to get in Big Brother's business and love to laugh and play with other babies. You are a water bug and "jump" into the water without fear, you sit on the side of the pool and wiggle yourself in, and right before you jump you squeeze your eyes shut tight so Mommy knows when to catch you. :)Then you splash and kick your legs in the water. You are sleeping soundly through the night and take 2 long naps a day without protest. You continue to be the easiest baby in the World and we are so blessed to be your parents.

Here is a picture of your fat little legs- I just love your little bottom and legs!


Happy 9 Months Sweet Baby Girl!
