Dear Madelyn ~ 9 months!

Dear Madelyn,

Our extra sweet, teeny tiny, baby buggy! You, my dear are 9 months old. It is so exciting watching you grow, but I want to cry knowing how fast it is going. 

 

This past month has been all about movement. You went from army crawling 1 week to up on all fours full on crawling in no time, and now you are fast! You also require baby proofing {your brother did not}. We are actually looking to purchase 3 working baby gates to replace the 2 broken ones we have that we have always just leaned against the stairs. We have all the outlets covered. You are obsessed with Chuggins water bowl. You are curious as anything and like to explore everything. 

 

You continue to love food. Although you are still not a fan of avocados or eggs. You love green beans and seem to be quite the meat eater! You love your snacks the most though--puffs, mum mums and yogurt melts make you super excited! 

 

You have 1 tooth! It's in and it's super adorable! We keep thinking another is coming, but we have said that for 2 weeks now so we have decided that you are pretty much just a horrible sleeper! I will give you a bit of slack because you caught your first fever and cold, but since then you are still waking up twice a night! Sometimes you only wake up once, but that's rare. Can you please go back to months 1-4 when you were sleeping through the night? We had to set an alarm and wake you up for feedings!! Such a tease. 

 

You my dear, we can tell you are going to be dramatic. You like to let it be known when you are done eating. You will throw your arms up, arch your back and fuss. You're getting better though and sometimes will sign all done. But seriously, a simple all done and a smile will work! 😉 You also enjoy dropping your food off your tray, dropping your cup over and over and  smearing food in your hair. 

 

Bath time is still one of your favorites! You love to splash!! 

Your favorite toy is still a ball but you also love cars. Let's just say it's obvious you have a big brother! ☺️ 

You love to give kisses! 😘😘 and are learning to blow kisses too!!!
 
 

Things you are not a fan of consist of staying still for diaper changes, having your nose wiped and sleeping through the night. Otherwise, you are pretty much a happy camper! 

See, happy camper. 😂 ok, having your picture taken a million times can be added to the list! 


Your 9 month stats--
Weight 16 lbs 13 ozs - 25%
Height 27.8 in - 53% 
Head 44.5 cm -66% 

You are a tiny little peanut! 

We love you so much baby girl!!!!! 

Xoxo, 
Mommy
