excitedly waiting for the doc to come in for her checkup Can it really be true? Is my baby already 9 months old? My sweet little girl has officially been alive in the world for the same amount of time she spent growing in her mommy.
At her 9-month checkup, Abby weighed 17 lbs. 12 oz. (25%) and was 28 inches long (75%).
This past month it seemed like we packed away piece after piece of baby gear. Goodbye swing...goodbye (more) clothes...goodbye mobile (because Abby is determined to yank it down) ...and then there was lowering her mattress. Before I know it, she'll be leaving for college. (Just kidding...kind of...)
Every moment has been and continues to be so precious. Now, instead of just being the adorable squishy baby that I spent hours watching as she slept all day, Abby has become an adorable, active baby girl who is easily excitable, talkative and strong-willed. Not to mention, she is a little joker. Her personality is shining through and she is a delight!
If you could see the look on her face when her daddy walks into the room. Her smile could knock him over. She is her daddy's girl. Not to mention, her four teeth!! If you think the toothless grin is cute, the 4-tooth grin is even cuter! Good thing she is a little cuddle-bug because we spend lots of time snuggling her.
In the last month, Abby has started waving bye-bye, blowing kisses and pulling herself up. Still no crawling, but rolling around like nobody's business. Seriously, don't get in her way she'll roll right over you. It's pretty hilarious.
Every month gets more and more fun! Sometimes I want to pinch myself because I can't believe this is really my life and then I realize, nope, this isn't a dream. God has chosen to bless us more than we could have ever dreamed! He is such a loving Father!
