9 months old!



It really hit me the other day when I picked the kids up from daycare that Brynn is
9 MONTHS already--wow time flies!
At the Dr.'s on Monday she weighed 17 pounds, 14 oz., and was 27 inches long. Layne and I both think she seems so much bigger than Caden was at this age, but every time I go back and look at Caden's baby book--he still wins as he was over 19 pounds at 9 months.

Brynn started crawling the week after Christmas and has gotten pretty fast! I head to our bedrooms to put laundry away and look back and she is right behind me. She is also doing what we call the BEAR crawl--bum straight up in the air and walking on hands and feet. We are having to remember to close the baby gate again and keep an eye on what she puts in her mouth!

Around Christmas time, Brynn also decided that she preferred people food over baby food, so we have been eating lots of noodles and using the baby grinder to keep her fed and happy. Every once in a while, we can sneak some baby food into her, but not much--she still loves puffs and cheerios and loves muffins. Our daycare lady also assures me that she loves peas, but peas don't make it to our house!

Brynn is working on getting new teeth, so sleeping has been off and on this month--hard to get use to when she had been sleeping so good, but the last week has been better, so hopefully she is settling back in--Caden on the other hand has decided to wake up several times during the night now as well--all the joys of parenthood!

Brynn is still full of smiles and blabber--we have heard a few mama's out of her, but dada and Keee (kitty) are still her favorite words to say all the time.


Too cute, even with her dress pulled up! And getting her to stay still with bear and in the chair proved to be quite a challenge--after trying once by myself where she ripped down the sign and toppled out of the chair where I caught her before she hit the ground--I decided to wait til Layne got home to help supervise!
Onward to 10 months and all the joy it will bring. :)
