Cheney: 9 months old

Cheney, you are NINE months old today!

Stats:

Weight: 15lbs 12oz (PEANUT status!)

Height: no idea...find out next week!

Clothing: 9 month & 12 month

Diaper: just moved up to size 3

Shoe: size 1

Eating:

Well, you still LOVE to eat! You are getting less interested in your bottles. You are still getting them 4 times a day but you usually only drink 4-5 ounces each time. You love to eat real food, though! Whenever anyone else around you has food, you think they should share. Your favorite foods right now are: blueberries, yogurt melts, Mexican rice, yogurt, any type of pasta, strawberries, watermelon, and crackers.  You still haven't mastered the sippy cup yet but love drinking water out of my cup!

Sleeping:

You are still sleeping through the night! Hooray! Sometimes you wake up fussing but you always get yourself back to sleep. You are sleeping from about 7:30-6:30. You were sleeping later until we moved. I need to get those blackout curtains hung up in your new room! You are taking 2 good naps a day. Luckily you are pretty laid back & can handle just one long nap on your brother's preschool days.  I know you will love summer break though because we won't have as many interrupted naps! You have also entered in to the fun phase where you throw all your pacis out of your crib as soon as you wake up!

Happenings this month:

-you are now CRAWLING! You can speed crawl all over the house! You are loving this new freedom.

-we moved! You have loved exploring the new house...you are a busy girl!

-You know how to climb up the stairs. I do not love this milestone.

-You are pulling up on everything! We had to lower your crib because you were starting to stand up in it.

-still zero teeth!

-you are obsessed with Jack. That grouchy little dog is your favorite and you follow him all over the house!

-you got your very first boo boo this month when you hit your eye on the coffee table.

-you are BUSY. You are always on the move & do not like to snuggle anymore except when we rock you to sleep!

-you really don't like having your diaper changed or changing clothes. You don't have time to sit still on your changing pad...you would rather be crawling around! You cry & roll around like crazy when we do change you.

 

Cheney May, you are just the sweetest and happiest baby girl. You are our little ray of sunshine & we are so thankful you completed our family! I adore your big blue eyes and big gummy smile. I will miss that when you finally get some teeth! You are so precious and so LOVED! Happy 9 months, baby girl!
