She loves her mama, especially when she's sick, which is why I carried her around like this for about 15 minutes one day. Every time we put her down she cried and it was driving us crazy. 15 minutes was all I could last. She is getting heavy already.
She loves her Grandma and cuddles.
She loves being outside and getting fresh air.
She also loves cuddles with Grandpa!
She loves playing with my container bin.
She loves trying new things like standing against the couch. Her brothers prop her up there and she holds on proud as can be.
She loves watching her brothers and their friends play the Wii. Isaac loves watching her.
Little miss piggy tails. She sits still as long as I give her something interesting to play with.
She loves her Daddy. I think he's a bit enthralled with her too!
She loves watching her brothers playing in the back yard.
Emma at 9 months:
- weighs 20 pounds
- has only 1 tooth
- loves her pink blankie that Nannie gave her. She only got attached to it a few months ago.
- has already been to a Ears Nose Throat Specialist about her tongue tie and is scheduled to see her again in Feb.
- Just had a doctors appointment yesterday regarding her hips. Her joints seem to be really loose and she is always doing the splits. So now she is also scheduled to see a specialist regarding that.
- waves to people, not all the time but often
- wears size 12-18 month clothing
- has huge thighs just like all the boys did
- loves her food. She already eats cut up bread with PB and jam, yogurt, baby cookies, cheerios, oatmeal, bananas, ice cream. That's pretty good considering she only has 1 tooth.
- is now weaned from nursing. Finished around New Year's.
- has two naps a day. One usually 2 hours or more and 1 that lasts about 45 minutes
- Sleeps through the night. 7:30 till 7
- crawls everywhere and is trying to pull herself up against coffee tables, laundry baskets, stools etc.
- Has a bit of a inverted bob haircut. It wasn't planned this way but her hair fell out at the back and not at the sides and it just ended up looking like an inverted bob cut. So trendy.
- doesn't like the exersaucer anymore so it's put away
- loves her brothers, each of them, even though Luke doesn't pay much attention to her.
- she has lots of smiles for everyone and gets lots of attention everywhere we go
- thankfully has tons of cute clothes that were passed on from her auntie Trixie. This has saved us tons of money. I haven't had to buy her much at all, although once and awhile I have to pick something up just because I never shopped in the girl section before.
- she is loved so much and fits in perfectly.
- she has been called a "spitfire" numerous times by her Auntie Tracy and is a real go-getter.
