9 months old-HOLY MOLY!


Look at those teeth!!



This is Aubrie's famous smile...simple and so SWEET.  She smiles with her eyes. 






Height-  26 1/2 inches
Weight- 15 1/2lbs
Your sleeping - Still sleeping with us.  You have started falling asleep in your carseat and will nap in it for about 30 minutes (we leave you in it and bring it inside)
Your feeding schedule- You are still exclusively breastfed. You have started standing while you eat (yes, you are still attached to me) and you'll shake your booty.
Some sounds and motions you make are-  You are getting louder! And you love to talk. You learned how to give "High 5" and are starting to wave a little.  When excited you'll pant like a dog.
This month, you really like- Your new sippy cup... you are officially drinking from a straw.
Your dislikes- The vacuum cleaner.
Your favorite toys and games are- You love books and have really started to rock your jumperoo.
New first-  You have two new teeth on top (6 total). You learned how to climb the staircase to the second floor all on your own and how to climb up on the couch by using your piano as a step stool. You are very affectionate with your mommy and daddy.  You don't give kisses yet, but when asked to give a kiss you lean your head into us. We no longer have to turn the dome light on in the truck for you at night.

Your sleeping - everything is WONDERFUL in this area. Although we have been working on getting you to take a nap alone in your pack n play... Currently, you are one tough lil girl! You don't want to do it. 
Your feeding schedule- You are still exclusively breastfed, and I don't see us stopping anytime soon. 
Some sounds and motions you make are-  You love to be heard! You have 3 words: da da, mum and ninn (you're hungry). Your shriek and squeal so loud now, it's super cute. You also started grunting, you are an absolute HOOT. 
This month, you really like- discovering new things. You know no fear. 
Your dislikes- You really don't have anything (except being away from/out of sight of me). You are so happy all the time.

You are still wearing size '2' diapers and just now really filling out 3-6 month clothing, you are petite and PERFECT! Oct. 13, 2013 was baby dedication at church. You stood up twice  while sitting on the bed, no assistance. 






Generation to generation

While visiting my parents, my dad found an outfit I wore as a baby and I just HAD to put Aubrie in it. Also while there I found some pictures of me and my lil brother that floored me by how much Aubrie does look like me. I hear all the time that Aubrie looks just like her daddy, so to see pics of me as a baby was pretty exciting- SHE IS MINE! Lol... I know she's mine, just a joke the hubs and I have. That I just carried her for 9 months, and maybe the next will look like me.
