9 months old!

Our pretty girl turned 9 months old yesterday!  She still loves her monthly "photoshoot"

She got her first two teeth last week...at the same time!! It's the two bottom ones. And she did not like it. She was fussy and feverish for 6 days straight. She does not handle mouth pain well!  Thank goodness we have our sweet girl back now though.
She crawled for the first time on Monday!  I actually caught it on video too!  I will post it below. She has been close to crawling for a couple weeks now. It wasn't until I got the baby doll off the shelf and put it on the floor...then she was determined!  She is such a girl!

She makes so many sounds. She is such a talkative little thing. She has said "mama" before but I haven't heard it much. She says "bye-bye" consistently and loves to wave to everyone. Her sounds are "dadadadada, ahhhhhh, bababababa, and daaaaaaa!"  And she draws them out just like I typed it. She loves to hear herself talk!

Here is Eli at the playground with Mimi...he had some special one on one time with her a few weekends ago and loved all the attention!


She loves to play with her bowls after we are done eating...she thinks she is feeding herself..ha!

Trying to work that spoon

Thinking about it...

Ahhhh, now she's got it!

She is at the stage where every expression is so funny to me so I just have to save all the pictures! 

Some of our sweet friends passed this little kitchen down to us. Eli wanted it to go in his room but when I broke the news that it is really for June he was mad!  So we put it in a neutral spot to make everyone happy. June already has claimed it though!

Getting out some dishes

She is so happy with her new toy!

This expression is so much like Jay to me.

Playing with her silver rattle..this girl already has high standards.

Jay just finished a session of gymnastics. He now knows how to climb up the posts in our house....maybe I should have thought that through before signing him up!

Eli and June have a new game....thankfully she loves it. He pulled her all of the house like this!

She knows to hold on though!

Looking up at her big brother...so sweet!

Eli got his cast off Monday!  He did great and held so still for Joy (Dr. Banks' nurse and also our cousin!) to cut it off. He was so low-key through the entire "cast experience". He rarely complained....only a few times did he say it itches. And he was so careful to keep it dry. He did, however, use it like a weapon. Jay learned he better stay away unless he wanted to get cast punched.

She looks just like her brothers when she isn't wearing pink!

Eli had his cast signed by some Georgia State Troopers and it made his day!

Jay and Daddy taking a Sunday afternoon nap

She has been crawling backwards for a while...and would always find herself caught under the couch!  haha

Hanging out on Mimi's back porch

Watching a movie with Mimi before going to bed. Love that smile!
