Alice: 9 Months

Weight: 16.8 pounds


Height:  28 inches

New Skills:  So much has happened in the past month.  She started standing on her own.

Then she took her first steps.

Then she started walking.  (I mean "walking" as in she can even from one room to another walking)

She has learned how to give raspberries.  It's really funny.

Likes:  Chasing the cats.  Going outside.  She really likes looking at the trees and feeling the breeze.

Dislikes:  Sleeping in her crib.  I attempted to get her to start sleeping in her crib at night.  We put it right next to my bed.  She did alright for a few nights then she started waking up about every hour.  I would nurse her back to sleep and put her back in the crib but she would wake up again an hour later.  So she is back in bed with me.

Firsts: May 17th Alice took her first step.

June 7th Alice got her first cold.  Thankfully it was very mild and only lasted a few days.  Mostly just a snotty nose.


First steps:

Walking for real:

Alice and her buddy Tiger Lily.

Giving Daddy "back rubs" aka using daddy as a jungle gym.

Helping with the laundry.

Silly faces.

Her hair is finally growing in.

Cute faces.
