Kate's 9 Months Old!


Our sweet baby keeps getting bigger!!! Kaitlin's 9 months old now. She weighs 21 lbs. Her thighs are perfectly chubby! She can crawl and cruise along furniture and walls. Her 2 bottom teeth just barely poked through. She has still been such a great baby, even while teething.

Kaitlin still has her "Jedi ponytail." We love it and won't be cutting it off! It has started to curl itself! It's on her right side.
She is into everything! We have a couple of corners that she loves to crawl into and play around in her own little space. She has also figured out how to open cupboards and drawers. I love this face she makes!
This is my absolute favorite face that she makes. She blows air in and out her nose while she does it.
She loves Lucas, even though he continues to be too rough! Someday she's going to pommel him. He is a good brother though! He's not a fan of her slobber, but he will pin her down to pick her nose and give her mouth a good finger swipe if she tries to eat something little. He's also really good at getting her to laugh. He has started to pick her up to move her to different locations. Sometimes it's helpful and sometimes it's scary!
Kate's still a great sleeper! She'll sleep from about 8 - 6:30.
Things Kaitlin loves:
-being tickled
-watching her brother
-Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
-Bill O-Reilly (She's crawling towards the t.v. to see him as I type this).
-baby hotdogs
-remotes and cellphones (typical baby, right??)
-food that is not baby food
-swimming and bath time
-Peek-A-Boo
-our radio/boombox
We love our Kaitlin!

Here she is crawling...and crying! She's generally quite happy! She is also being attacked by a "bad wolf" in this video.

Are 9 month olds at the peak of cuteness or is it just me??? She is such a beauty, just like her mama.
