9 months

This big girl hit her 9 month mark on May 25th.  And what a 9 months it has been.  She went to the Dr. and weighs in at about 21 lbs., is about 27 in. long and a head circumference of about 18 in.!  She is one big girl and one big personality.  We always thought she was an easy going baby, but she has some spunk to her!

 She loves to explore and gets into just about everything.  She just recently went from scooting to crawling.  She pulls herself up on everything and puts whatever she can get her hands on straight in her mouth.  You have to watch this one!!!

 She loves to be around people but doesn't really need to interact with them.  She is happy watching what is going on and then trying to join in.  This is really cute unless you start eating your brother's lego creation or grabbing at your sister's baby doll.  Everyone is learning how to be patient though :)

 She is still a great sleeper and usually goes down between 8 and 8:30 and gets up just before 7.  She isn't the greatest napper, but needs a morning nap more then an afternoon nap.  She loves to eat and is good about putting food items in her mouth as well.  I don't know if I could really say what her favorite foods are because she eats just about everything.  But she does get excited to see her baby food come out and the Cheerios box come out.

She is a happy, fun loving and super curious girl.  She loves to be outside or inside or upside down.  Just so long as she is where everyone else is, she is happy.  She does have a little stubborn streak in her too and doesn't like to be told no.  If you tell her no, she will just keep doing it until you make her stop. We are working on that though.  We love our happy Bode baby!
