Wow, you're 2/3 of a year old! I can't believe in 4 short months you'll actually be a ONE year old!! I guess I'd better start planning your party... This has been yet another great month! You've shown us that you have an independent side, which has made for some fun times getting to see you explore the world around you. We celebrated your first Halloween and Thanksgiving this past month, and boy did you have a blast during both holidays. Daddy and I can't wait to celebrate Christmas with you in your ninth month, and teach you all about Jesus' birth! Mommy and Daddy love you and truly cherish each day that passes!
We love you bunches!
Mommy and Daddy
Weight: 16 lbs, 8 oz (according to my scale)
Length: not sure... but you've grown!! :)
Diaper size: Size 2, soon to be size 3 though!
Teeth: Still no teeth...
Clothes size: You're wearing 6-12 months and 9 months clothing!
Sleep: You go to sleep pretty much right at 7 (after your last bottle of the evening). Most of the time you'll sleep until 6:30-7, but there are times you wake up earlier. Sometimes you'll go back to sleep, depending on what time you wake up for your bottle. Mommy likes when you go back to sleep!
Favorite activities/things: Sitting up, crawling, pulling up, trying to stand without holding on, finding things to put in your mouth, jumping in your jumper, reading with Pops, Sophie the Giraffe, watching Giggle Bellies, and so much more!
Eating: You take 5 bottles a day, every 3-4 hours during the day. You also eat breakfast around 8, lunch around noon, and dinner at 6. This month we've transitioned you to mainly what Mommy and Daddy are eating and you LOVE it! We'll feed you (or let you feed yourself) bite size pieces of food. You're becoming a pro at getting food into your mouth on your own!
Nicknames: Sweet Pea, Miss E, Lizzie
Talking: You're definitely becoming much more talkative. When we were in Texarkana, you would mimic Pops when he would make the "p" sound. It was so cute to watch y'all go back and forth. You're also a pro at "ba," "ma" (music to my ears!!), and "da" (music to Daddy's ears!). I've also heard you say a couple of "ga" sounds!
New adventures: Nothing too new this month, aside from going out to eat and actually getting food from the restaurant!!
New Skills: Crawling, pulling up, walking with assistance, feeding yourself... we've had a month full of learning new things!!
And on to the photo shoot... I had E in this adorable outfit, but it was way too cold outside to take pictures in it. So I put her in a cute, warm outfit, and am saving the other one for a warmer day (or next to our Christmas tree... we'll just have to see!)
