Happily Ever After: Tilly

Holy cow- These pictures are IMPOSSIBLE to take now. I was pouring sweat by the time I was done from wrestling her to stay down. Below is how 99% of the pictures turned out!!

Month: 10 - April 21, 2015

Height: No doctor appointment this month to check!

Weight: Maybe a little more than last month? I doubt much! (15lbs 13oz at 9 months)

Diaper Size: Size 3

Clothes Size: Still fitting comfortable in the 9 months. Dresses fit in the 6 month size since she is so skinny. I need to pull out her 12 month tote soon (this girl has WAY too many clothes) and see if any run small that she can maybe fit in.

Teeth: 2 - bottom middle!

Sleep: Pretty much the same here. 7:30-7:30 most nights, though she has been waking up 6:30/7 some mornings. Luckily she just plays in her crib, so we leave her until her normal time. Then naps have definitely cut back. Only 2 now and mostly just an hour for each one. The morning one at the same time, and then an afternoon one.

Eat: I could talk here for days. Tilly is such a happy, easy baby in every aspect except eating! She will do great for a few days- taking her bottles, whole grilled cheese sandwich.. just overall eating awesome. Then, nothing. Refusing her bottle most feedings, pushes all solids out of her mouth, and will only eat the purees. Whhhyyyy?! I know I shouldn't stress too much because she is happy and it isn't bothering her. I just see other babies her age eating so much and I wish she would just like food!! I'm also on the hunt to find a sippy cup she will use. We are on our 6th try now and I THINK this one might work. Goodness gracious little girl! Her favorite foods (on a good day) are avocado, turkey kielbasa, grilled cheese, green beans, vanilla yogurt, Earth's Best mini organic blueberry pancakes, watermelon, and.. I think that's it.

Likes: Well she still loves to move ALL DAY LONG. I am completely wore out by the end of the day with this little monkey. Her energy level is through the roof. She loves playing with all her toys and speed racing through the house. She also LOVES the remote and cell phones, and I mean loves! Her newest obsession is trying to climb up the TV stand. Fun stuff for mommy. Oh, and you know how she won't eat? She'll be sure to pick up any speck of anything she can find on the ground and eat that! haha

We recently started giving her longer bath times and that baby loves being in the water! She will sit and play with her little rubber duckies and "talk" to them as long as we leave her in there. Too cute!

She really loves going shopping and smiling at everyone walking by. I swear we have SO many people come up to us in stores to talk to her, it's just so funny. She is very social in that aspect.. who know what she would do if they tried to hold her though! ha

(I just thought she looked too cute in the tiny CVS baskets.. perfect for her size!)

Dislikes: Eating and drinking...

Firsts: She is officially standing on her own.. but just standing. No steps yet, which I am perfectly ok with! ha She walks up and down the couch super fast and with her little walker toy, so I am sure it's coming soon. Yikes.

She will give you kisses now if you ask. (mainly slamming her face into mine and then hysterically laughing) The funny thing is she won't do it to Lance because she doesn't like the way his beard feels! He'll say, "Give me a kiss!" and she scrunches up her face and leans back! haha

And she is getting better at waving bye bye.. a little frantically,but at least she knows what to do!

Extra Updates: Well I wrote a post before about how she did nuts in MS again and how we had a trip planned to Lance's dad's.. yea, she did great there! Apparently she really does just hate MS! haha She actually has done really well since I wrote that post. She has let other moms hold her at playgroup and at her gym class. She also does really well when new people come to our house. So anyone back home who wants to see my normal baby, you must come to us! :)

Again, just moving right along and amazing us everyday with what all she is learning. She is so much fun to be around and is just a little firecracker. She has the biggest personality and keeps us smiling and laughing all day long. I can't believe my little baby will be 1 soon, but I am so excited to see what type of little person she continues to grow into. We love you so much sassy pants!

Here are a few random pics from this month! :)
