9 Months

 Man I really stink at updating the blog! Between playdates, pool parties, beach time, the computer crashing so I could not upload yet again.....visitors! I'm worn out! I know I know such a hard life huh?? Beach, Pool, Playing.....yeah bite me!

So our little butterball turned 9 months on July 5! She is 16 1/2 pounds  26 inches long so pretty much a well portioned peanut! Shes in the 10% and 15% for her weight/height! Ha! Go figure we are both on the smaller side! Shes crawling.......well scooting but she's mastered that and starting to pull up so I don't think she will crawl with her belly off the ground. That's her way of crawling and girlfriend can move it when she wants too! Shes so funny on our hardwood floors she does little break dancing moves on her belly. She can whip herself around in a flash.


 She still digs those 2 fingers (pointer and middle) but only does that when shes tired. She has been so lovely, sweet, quiet, child! ha! She cut all FOUR top teeth at once PLUS 2 molars!!!!! Yeah not a happy camper nor is there much sleep going on here, at least for momma.

 But thats ok! Shes a little snuggle bug so we cuddle, nurse and go back to sleep. Thank God! She just looks SO BIG and LONG here, but don't let it fool  ya, its the angle.

 Our usual monthly picture! Her frame is filling up! She has changed SO much! I don't think she looks like the baby we brought home! I can not get enough of Tessa! I see Hannah and it all goes TOO fast so I'm enjoying every moment with her....even the fussy ones! Because I know that's not normal for her and this too shall pass.

 So things in our garden started growing, lots of carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes and some green peppers!!!! Hannah is recently obsessed with carrots. Which I totally love her having that for snacks instead of fruit snacks or chips etc.! So here she is being a bunny! She was saying up and down up and down boing boing! hopping around the house!

AND did you notice the UNDERWEAR!?!?!!?!? WE did it! Shes potty trained and has been for a month and a half! I didn't want to write it because I couldn't believe it was that easy! I kept waiting for her to go back to diapers or have accidents have me get frustrated and nothing! I'm so proud of her! She did amazing! I just got fed up one day on the diapers told her no more and we did underwear and never looked back! She had to be in nothing or underwear for her to actually go potty if she had diapers on she went in them. So they are only used at bedtime. She still amazes us everyday.
