Andie 9 Months

Andie Noelle is 9 months old today. I don't know where the time is going but I can't believe I was pregnant for 9 months and now my little girl is 9 months old. She has such a personality showing and is definitely my bubbly girl. At 9 months old....

1. Andie is our summer baby for sure. Her favorite colour is yellow, not purple anymore. She would rather wear shorts every day even if it is snowing outside then put on a pair of jeans. She also loves glasses, especially her stylish sunglasses! If all those don't scream summer baby I don't know what else would :)

2. Andie loves books. She will sit on the ground looking at books all day long, if she didn't have to eat. I don't know where she got that love for books because I for one am not a book lover. We are building our book collection, so that is good, we have movies covered but books we could use more of!

3. Andie has always slept throw the night since I can remember, I really lucked out with her! Put instead of me having to hold her to sleep every night and then move her to her crib, she will now put herself to sleep. I love that I can just place her in her crib and get some extra time with Zachary, especially when our time is so limited.

4. Andie is wearing size 6-9 month clothes. It was a sad week for me as I pulled all her 3-6 month clothes out of her drawers and into my storage bin. I pulled out some of her newborn sized clothes, how did she fit in those? My little girl is not so little anymore. We went shopping and got a bunch of new clothes for Andie to wear. She is still in size 2 diapers.

5. Andie army crawls everywhere. She doesn't really do the full on hands and knees crawling but she has like a wide stance scooting crawl. I don't really know how to explain it but she can move so fast. She is really enjoying the open room in our new place.

6. Andie loves to laugh. She laughs all day long until she closes her eyes to sleep, but would laugh in her sleep if she could I am sure of it! She plays games with blankets in stores and laughs with daddy all day long. I love my giggly girl :)

7. Andie has moved into her 3rd home since she has been born. She actually has room to move around in and has picked up on so many more skills because of it. Andie pulls herself up to stand and it starting to walk along things as the is holding on to them. I can't wait to get an actual house so she doesn't have to keep moving and so that we can make memories of her growing up in our house we will have for years and years.

8. Andie has eaten a lot of new things from cereal to yogurt bites and Oreos to sandwiches. If there is food laying around she will eat it no questions asked. She loves yogurt bites, no matter what flavor. She loves eating Oreos and her baby cookies plus crackers and cereal she will munch on all day. Her cousin left a ham and cheese sandwich laying around, I caught Andie eating it. It's true when they say your child is being quite that's when you should be most worried.

9. Andie loves her princess chair from Santa. If I ever start to look for her the first place is by this little pink chair of hers. She will just sit in it for hours. Zachary and I were watching a movie and she just sat in her chair and watched with us. She loves the princess chair!

10. Andie is our tall skinny girl. At the doctor she weighted in at 17 pounds 8 ounces and 28 inches long. For her weight she is in the 25%, height in the 80% and head in the 75%. She is ahead in her length and head but that gives me no concern. My side of the family all have big heads so she must have a "Redd" head.

I love my little girl and all her many talents. She is such a smart girl and continues to learn and grow everyday. I am so privileged to be able to call her mine for all eternity. I love you Andie Noelle :)
