My baby is growing up too fast!!

Look Who is 9 Months Old!!

I know I'm about a week late for this post but better late than never right!?! WOW!! I know I say this every month, but seriously our baby is growing up way to fast.. Every month I get a little more sad that LA is growing up so fast but am also very happy because she is doing new things everyday! This week has definitely had it's ups and downs! Thank you guys so much for the comments and phone calls I have received since my last post!! I am feeling a lot better now after talking with you all and we are going to try our hardest to make sure that our baby is healthy and happy! Good news is that today we found out that we will be moving in the next month or so which means new doctor for LA!!! YAY!! This could not have come at a better time..It's funny how things end up working out in the end!! Hopefully we will find out by Monday when and where we are moving. We are praying for California so keep your fingers crossed that we get this boat!! Okay now to the good stuff! Lily Ann here is what you have been doing:

*You weigh 23lbs. 7oz.


*You are 27.5 inches tall


*You are getting 3-7oz. bottles and 1-5oz. bottle a day!

*You are eating 1/3 jar of fruit, veggies and meat, for lunch and dinner!(The doctor has you on a "diet"!!) :)

*You eat 2 tbs. of cereal for breakfast in the morning..(Also part of your "diet"!)

*You are sleeping from 7pm-8:15am!! You are such a good sleeper

*You have a 45 minute nap in the morning and lately(Keep your fingers crossed!) 2 hrs. in the afternoon!

*You love to read books, especially Hello Big Red!! You just scream with excitement while we read it to you and then you cry when we put it away!! (It's never to early to start teaching your children how important the Arkansas Razorbacks are!!) ;)

* You are a roly poly..You roll everywhere and you can clear the living room in less than a minute!

* You love to say Mama and Dada

*You also love giving kisses. You will grab my face with your little hands and sneak in a big slobbery kiss!!

*You are still screaming like crazy at everything..Especially when Daddy comes home from duty. As soon as he walks in the door you start screaming and don't stop until he comes to pick you up and give you kisses!!(Jacob's on duty anywhere from 2-4days at a time!)

*You love, love, love to swim! You are a true water baby!!

*You are now in a big girl car seat and love it!! You just watch everything go by!

*You love music..You are starting to dance when you hear any kind of music..You are also try to sing when Mommy sings to you..Either that or Mommy's voice is so bad you cant stand to hear it so you sing to block me out!! HAHA!!

*You are starting to take baby steps when your Daddy or I hold your hands..

*You love to play with your toys in the floor.You could sit there all day playing if we would let you!

*You are going to be crawling soon..You are scooting backwards on your belly now and we are still working on moving forward.


*You do "laps" in your crib! You love to roll over and scoot down the bed to where your crib toys are!

*You are a very happy baby and are always laughing at anything and everything!

*You love to watch Mickey Mouse and Baby Einstein DVD's.

*You are now testing your boundaries with your Daddy and I. When you really want something you have come up with the cutest little cry where you try and stick our your bottom lip and act like you are going to cry.. Don't worry baby girl,Mommy and Daddy have you all figured out!! Everyone else seems to fall for it every time..What a clever little girl you are!! ;)

Lily Ann, we love you so much and are so thankful that you are our daughter. You are learning new things everyday and we are always amazed by you. You are truly a gift from God and there is not a day that goes by that we do not thank Him for bringing you into our lives. Happy 9 months little girl!!

Mommy and Daddy
