9 Months!

I cannot believe that Evelyn is 9 months old today! It seems like just yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital. After Evelyn was born my old boss told us about someone she knew that took a picture of their baby every week on the same dat that she was born (Wednesday in Evelyn's case) for a year so she could see the changes. I've been doing that and it's been so fun to see the changes just from week to week. So here are a few pictures to show how she has grown.

Our brand new baby girl, the day she was born.

(Check out that dark hair!)

Here she is at 9 weeks old.

And here's our pretty girl at 9 months!

Here's a few updates on what she's been up to:

• She has her two bottom front teeth. I'm sure some more will be coming in pretty soon, her upper gums look a little more swollen and red than normal. I just hope they come in easier than these two did, she was not a happy camper.
• She crawls everywhere! She will follow us around the house, it's pretty cute.
• She also climbs up on everything. If it is higher than the floor, she is up on it.
• Her favorite toy is her walking toy, she would much rather be walking than crawling. I'm sure it won't be too long before she really is walking.
• She can say "moma"! I'm not 100% sure she knows what it means, but she might, there are moments she she looks at me and says it, but then she just says it when she is babbling. We're working on getting her to say "dada" :)
• She loves books, but the touchy-feely ones are her favorite.
• Evelyn is always SO happy. I feel so lucky to have such a content and mild baby.

Again, I cannot believe she is 9 months old! Time sure does fly when you're having fun!

Her 9 month check-up is on Tuesday so I'll be sure to post her weight and length then.
