9 months old

Well, "V" turned 9 months old on April 1, but we just now found her stickers for the photos.  Artie (bless his heart) went into her room to do a little "cleaning" and putting away.  Well, those got put away and were now just found.
Went to the dr. on the 7th  and we weigh 21 pounds 10 oz. (88%) She is 27.5 inches tall (short) (45%) and her head is 87%.  She just might be more like me than we thought.  Poor thing just might be short.
We have learned to crawl on hands and knees...no more army crawl.  Champion at eating meats.  "V" can blow kisses, give you a high five, and wave bye to you as you go.  She has NO stranger anxiety.  If you have something shiny on, she wants to be your best friend. She talks constantly and that first word was "Mamma" NOT "Dada".  She makes the craziest faces and her new way of greeting you is with a scowl.  She also does this whole "open mouth smile" that she gets from me.  So many of my pics were with a wide open mouth.  She really doesn't want to be held too much anymore, but would rather be down discovering her world.  When you call her name while she is crawling, she thinks that means she needs to HURRY UP and get away.  "V" is just a funny gal.  Her personality is very sweet, but MEGGA headstrong (wonder where she gets that?!?)  I would rather her be that way than passive.  She loves her cousins and is SOOOO excited to see them.  Having all boys as cousins is right her alley.  She is all about the attention.  Not many 9 month pics.  We are megga distracted and got a few smiles ;-)


I have found my bows!





I love piggy!



PIGGY IN TIME OUT!

More photo shoot pics

Here are some extra shots that I love as well.  There are so many and every one of them has a story of how Anne got the shot.  If only the pictures could talk!





This one just screams..."Hold on, it wasn't me!"








If you look closely - you will see a cherrio sticking out of her mouth.  She is too funny!

Was this before or after she at some leaves??

We are on the move!

Church is a special time for us.  We love to see "V" get so excited while singing at church.  Good thing we are going to Creekside...she loves to raise her hands and get her "Jesus" on.
This is her and Artie before church. 




Look how long our hair is getting.


We have been pulling up on anything and everything.

And there she goes!




Love her stance...so cute!


Otis getting close...but knows not to get too close.

Pics from photo shoot

This is what Anne has sent me so far from our little shoot on Wednesday.  I could not be more pleased!  I am so glad she captured so many smiles.  If you only knew what we had to do to get those smiles...you would defiantly think we were crazy!

Family time

Tonight, it was beautiful outside. Artie was finishing up the dog house for the 2 canines in the driveway. So after V ate dinner, she and I decided to watch him work. She loves chillin' in her little stroller and letting the wind hit her face. She found the 2 little buttons on her pants and I think that kept her occupied for at least 30 min. These are just some random shots of her and the moment. Can't wait to spend the summer outside with her.


Let's count the buttons...one, two...


Dog house...Artie is trying to figure out what to do for a roof. 

Sweet feet!

Daddy and daughter trying to figure out that roof situation. 

Top teeth are comin' in!
