9 months!

Natalie is 9 months old already...time is going by way too fast. She has changed so much in just the last couple of weeks. She is crawling all over the place, and pulling up on everything. She waves and does "high fives."

She loves eggs

"Helping" with the laundry

She won't drink out of a normal sippy cup...it has to have a straw.

Our neighbors bought Natalie this coat...she loves it even though she can't move when she wears it. :)

Natalie's Milestones:

Crawling! She started this week...it's still kind of a half scoot.

She says Mama!

Around 15.5 lbs

9 Month Clothes

Size 2 diapers...amy need to go to 3's soon. I really am trying to be better about cloth diapering too.

Natalie is such a sweet baby...terrible sleeper though. I am pretty worn out from not having a good night sleep the last 8 months. She has finally started to drop her night time feeding, which is helping. She still wakes up a couple time a night though needing one thing or another...I am pretty sure teething isn't helping matters.

Here are some pictures from the last couple months or so....

Sneaky Gibson stealing her cracker

Cruising...she loves this thing.

First fruit smoothie

This kid is so funny...she did this all on her own...Michael handed her the paper because she like to crinkle it, but instead she opened it up like she was reading it. :)

Natalie is generally a happy baby. Lately she has been a little more fussy...I think due to teething. She does not like it when strangers hold her or when I am out of her sight. She is a sweet and smiley girl and it is a joy to be her mommy.

Learning to drink from a sippy cup

She loves snack time :)

Gibson loves snack time too :)
