9 Months Old

This little cutie has officially been out longer than she was in! 

Here is a little tbt for you: 

36-ish weeks pregnant

Actually since this little stinker was a week late, next week she will be out longer than she was in.

My camera has been taking super blurry pictures lately, but I was still able to get a few good ones. This month Esther is standing and pulling up all over the place! She still has no teeth, but that doesn't stop her from eating tons of finger foods. She loves yogurt bites, puffs, cheerios, corn, peas and bits of meat. She really liked the pieces of turkey on Thanksgiving.

She still nurses about 5 times during the day and 1-2 times at night. She has been so happy and smiley lately. She is usually always happy, even when she is tired or hungry she is easily distracted. 

She weighs about 22 pounds and is about 28 inches long. She wears 12 and 18 month clothes. It is crazy to be buying her 2T clothes for the spring.  

                                     

At 9 months she likes:

-going outside

-baths

-watching the tv for 5-10 mintues at a time

-songs like "patty cake" "if you're happy and you know it" and "the wheels on the bus"

-watching older babies/toddlers and trying to follow them

-toys with lights and songs

- banging her hands on any surface

-animals

-destroying the house

At 9 months she doesn't like:

-being in her carseat

-nursing anywhere other than laying in bed

-strangers, especially men

-things being taken away from her

Doing one of her classic happy screams

She is getting to be such a big girl. I can't believe that soon she will be 1!

I do love the times that she falls asleep when I am nursing her,to remind me that she still is just a baby. I hope she doesn't stop anytime soon.
