Tilly - 9 Months

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and we're done...

Month: 9- March 21, 2015

Height: 26 1/4 inches

Weight:  15lbs 13oz - 10% still!

Diaper Size:  Size 3

Clothes Size:  All 9 month except for the few random 6 month that are really the same size as her 9 month stuff

Sleep:  She actually bumped her bedtime back right after she hit 8 months. Now she is pretty much set at 7:30pm-7:30am.  Naps are a bit more random now. 2-3 a day that can range from 30 minutes up to 2 hours.  Her only consistent one is her morning one which she has around 10am every day.. but that one can still vary on length.

Eat:  Uh.  This baby is the most stressful thing when it comes to eating.  When she's eating more purees and solids, she will barely take her bottle.  Some days she'll  have 20+ ounces, other days maybe 10-15?  She still only likes vegetable purees, mainly ones with corn in them.  We are trying new real foods all the time. So far she really likes avocado, bananas, carrots, and green beans.  Oh, and that cinnamon roll and ice cream we gave her the other day.. whatever, she needs to gain some weight! haha  She also loves all the Gerber "snacks".  After meeting with her doctor today we got the OK to try pretty much any food we eat, so it's definitely time to get this baby eating!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Likes:  She loves to move NON-STOP. She pretty much just loves to do anything she isn't supposed to- try to rip the curtains off the wall, pull stuff off bookshelves, eat the rug, lick the glass door, chew on the TV stand door knobs, chew on phone charger cords, you know.. all the fun stuff.

 

 

She also loves sitting and looking out the door waiting on Daddy to get home! As soon as he walks in the door she starts squealing and turbo crawls to him.. it is the CUTEST THING EVER!

 

 

 

Oh, and her absolute favorite thing in the world? Sitting up on her Daddy's head picking at his beard and hair.. Such a weird little thing!

 

 

 

Dislikes: She's definitely gotten better with strangers and isn't QUITE so frantic.  We go back to MS this week, so that'll be the real test. She was quite the grumpy butt last time!

Firsts:  She was standing before, but now she can let go and stand for a few seconds before falling. She is constantly walking up and down the couches, and pulling up on EVERYTHING. I swear she is just going to walk across the room one day soon like it's no big deal!  The doctor told us today she will for sure be walking before a year. Yikes!

She now always sits in the top of the cart when we go shopping, and in a high chair at restaurants.  She just loves to stare and watch everyone.

 

 

 

She just recently started clapping and waving back at you.. too cute!

She finally really says Mama at me and (I think!) knows that it's me and not just a word! haha She stopped saying Dada, so hopefully she'll pick it back up soon!


Extra Updates:  Her first bottom tooth is completely out, and now the one beside it is coming in! Progress! Still shows no signs of teething or acts like anything is happening- we are definitely lucky there.. for now.  Who knows what's to come as she gets more and more.

 

 

We are still just moving right along and watching this super independent baby learn new things each day.  We have a crazy schedule for the next few months.. A trip home this week to MS, the next weekend is Easter at Lance's dad's, the next is Lance's birthday, beach trip in June, and then some other big exciting things coming up.  More on that later!  (and no, it's NOT another baby! ha)  And then before we know it.. it'll be her first birthday.. ahhhh!

 

 

 

We took her to the park this month and realized our tiny tot will probably never fit into the baby swings!

 

 

 

Redoing a bathroom ceiling equals bath time in the kitchen sink!

 

Happy 9 Months you sassy little thing!
