9 Months Old

E -

How the heck can you be 9 months old already? I feel like it was only a few weeks ago that we brought you home. You were this little thing that was just so full of personality from the get-go. You have always been so aware of whats all around you and have taken an interest in your world.

This month you have made some great achievements. You not only are cruising around the furniture, you are also developing quite a sense of humor. You will make funny sounds and than laugh at yourself. You'll knock down blocks I stack up and than laugh. You'll give me a raspberry and than laugh. You get the picture :)

You are sooo happy 95% of the time. That other 5% is when you're hungry and tired. Very rarely do you melt down. You always have a smile on your face and we can get you to laugh even when you're upset. I couldn't have asked for a better baby than you.

Now that you're super mobile you can get into everything! It's fun to see what you're going to explore next. And you've gotten FAST! You seriously go down the hallway faster than Jetta sometimes. And when Daddy gets home you race the dogs to the front door :)

You're pulling up on everything. You don't even need somethign to grab onto in order to pull up on something. You pull up on cabinets, the doors, the couches and tables, and us! You are also only holding on with one hand when you stand up. You like to keep the other hand free for toys, food, etc.

I can't express in words how happy you make me. And I'm sure you're father would say the same thing. We are soooo in love with you. You bring us such joy!

Love,
Mommy
