Clap clap clap!!!!

Baby girl started to clap today at the doctors office... Mommy has worked hard on trying to get DJ to clap... I just wish I could have savored the moment a bit more but couldn't since I was so wrapped up in thinking I was a bad mommy for letting you get a double ear infection... The doctor started you on your first course of antibiotics (amoxicillin).. Breaks mommys heart to see you sick. You have not been running any fevers and are acting happy as a clam, so I just assumed you were teething. Turns out doctor said you are getting a FEW teeth as well. You are a strong little lady thats for sure.

Nine months old!!!!



You are such a happy girl these days it's harder to list things you love than it is to list the things you dislike... But we will name a few of your favorite things. Since you have began crawling, you love trying to stand up on your own. You try using moms legs or the couch or even the dog gate for leverage but usually only make it to your knees before giving up...if mommy holds your hands you will stand up on your feet... You love standing, often times won't go to a sitting position unless forced into one.. You love electrical cords.. Somehow everyday you manage to get into Mommy's laptop charger and eat it. You love crawling over towards patches and sticking your fingers through the baby gate so she can lick you.. You love cruising in your walker car and picking up all moms junk around the house that you couldn't reach if you were crawling..you still love putting everything in your mouth, no matter what. You enjoy the game of getting mom & dads food but not so much the taste.. As soon as you get a nibble you are disinterested. I made you eggs this morning, you took one bite and snubbed them. You love eating watermelon or cantaloupe in the mornings. You tried macaroni and cheese and didn't show any disgust. You enjoy going for walks. You still love mommy wearing.. Your beginning to adjust to the stroller a bit more. You adore your mommy & me classes, so giddy and happy all the time at class. Such a show off!!! You often fall asleep in the car rides home. You love when daddy comes home from work, your face lights up with excitement when you see his face. You have begun to say ma-ma & da-da, now is the rat race on who you mean and say it to first!!! I sure hope I win.. You love bath time, we started to bath you daily because you get food everywhere and because you love the bath so much. You have your two bottom teeth in, no signs yet of top teeth coming. Your hair is blonde and your eyes are a bluish-green.. You are in 18-24 months clothes... The last time you were weighed it was almost 23 pounds I cannot believe how fast you are growing before our eyes... Everybody says to not blink your eyes and I never understood that until I had become a mother myself... Happy nine months to the most adorable happy precious little girl I know...
