Though this post is a little belated, the pictures were actually taken close to Brayla's 9 month birthday. We've been passing around a cold/sinus infection in our house so poor thing was just not up for pictures on her big day. Nevertheless, lots of big things going on for our littlest princess in this past month:
-You go to sleep about 7:30 every night. You are getting to be a little more difficult to put to sleep for some reason. But once you are asleep, you're out for quite a while. If you're left to wake up on your own, it's usually between 7 and 7:30 when you get up. Yesterday, it was 8:30 before you got up...hallelujah!
-You are wearing a size 3 diaper.
-We had your 9 month checkup last week and you weighed 16 pounds 10 ounces (15th percentile), 26.25 inches long (10th percentile), and a 17 inch head circumference (25th percentile). That length sure explains how you fit into 3-6 month clothes still!
-You are finally wearing more 6-9 month and 6-12 month clothes. There are still some 3-6 month pants that will fit your short little legs :)
-You are taking 4 bottles a day along with 3 meals. You are still a picky eater. One day you'll love something and the next day hate it. I have to be creative about the way I feed you in order to get you to eat much. But you're growing and that's all that matters.
-You got your second bottom tooth this month. Your teeth come in so slow and make you so miserable. I'm hoping we can take a little break from teething and get you back to your happy little self again.
-Your hair is really starting to grow. It's coming in pretty dark and you've got a little baby chick fluff on the top that usually sticks up :)
-You are still crawling like a wild woman. You mainly army crawl, but will occasionally get off your belly and on to all fours. You are "cruising" everywhere. I don't think it'll take much more time for you to be off and walking (though I'm not really ready for you to be this big yet!)
-You just started signing "all done" when you don't want to eat anymore. It.is.adorable.
-You are starting to be a little more possessive of your belongings. Brynlee pretty much thinks all of your toys are hers, and when she takes one you throw a minor fit. It's short-lived, but you definitely show us how you feel.
Can't believe it's about time to start thinking of and planning your 1st birthday. Slow down, little one! We love watching you grow up and seeing everything you're capable of, but we'd still like you to stay our "baby" for a little while longer!
