9 months!!

Happy 9 month birthday baby girl! She is 15lbs 1.5 oz (3%) and 26.5 inches (25%). Our little peanut.


- She now waves, claps and dances to music. She has discovered that banging things together makes a fun noise and learned to push the buttons so her toys make music. She loves to read books and turns the pages for us. Her favorite game is to knock over stacks of blocks.

- She LOVES playing with other kids, those of all ages

- She is enjoying the finger food, in particular crackers, cheerios and toast. We also gave her some spaghtetti the other day and she dove right in! She is not as fond of picking up the softer foods (bananas, avocados, steamed veggies), but loves them when you put them in her mouth. She will probably end up like me and have a thing about textures :-)

- She is becoming an opinionated little girl and is sure to let you know when you are not making her happy. Especially when you take something away that she wants to play with!

- She cruises all over the room while holding onto the furniture. She is also trying to stand on her own but still needs a bit more practice.

- She still has just the one tooth. I keep thinking the second is going to make an appearance, but no such luck yet.

Ski For All

Maya and I went up to the mountains so she could meet my friend and Ski For All student, Lilla. I spent my Sundays with her every winter for years and have really missed the fun we had. Hopefully next year!!

If your happy and you know it...

Clap your hands! A new skill she learned from her friends at daycare. If you look very closely you will notice a very subtle head bounce in the middle of the clapping. She has also learned to 'dance' to music (sometimes music only she can hear). She bounces her head and if she is standing swings her hips. She looks adorable when she does it and gets Rey and I laughing each time. I haven't been able to capture the full thing on video yet.



Excuse the food on her face, she had just finished breakfast.
