Chrissly's 9 month Birthday!!!

Chrissly's 9 month Birthday!!!

Chrissly at 9 months --- February 23, 2012

* Weight: Not sure...did not go to the pediatrician this month
* Length: again not sure
* You wear Size 2 diapers; but we are about to switch you to size 3 diapers
* You wear mostly 9 months clothes. However, you are wearing some 6-9 months clothes too. You are a very long baby! :)
* You sleep best in between Mommy and Daddy. Mommy has not tried getting you to sleep in your crib, because it made you cry so much and Mommy didn't feel like it was a good thing to stress you and her out every night. As everyone says, "You can't love a baby too much." So, Mommy is enjoying being kicked by you when you are sleeping between her and Daddy :) Sometimes you literally kick Mommy out of the bed because Mommy can't sleep when you keep kicking her, so she goes to sleep on the couch. :) Every morning when you are ready to wake up, you turn towards Daddy and start talking to him and kicking him (Mommy is usually already on her way to work when you wake up) :)
* You eat 3 times a day. You have gotten on a schedule and eat when the big people eat. You do have a bottle as a snack in between though. You usually eat breakfast sometimes between 7:30 - 8:30. You have a bottle as a snack around 9:30 - 10:00. Lunch is usually eaten around 11:30. It's usually snack time again around 2 - 3:30 so you have another bottle. Dinner is around 5:30, and you have a bottle right at bedtime at around 7:30 - 8:30.
* You usually eat pretty much anything. However, you don't really like meats. No one can blame you, baby food meat is pretty gross!!!! You love fruits, veggies, yogart, etc.
* This month you started eating finger foods. Gerber makes these little puff stars that you like. Mommy is proud of you because you use your little pincer grip to pick them up and put them in your mouth! Such a big girl!!! :)
* We still have you sleep in the pj's with the feeties because you will kick and kick until you kick the covers right off; so, to make sure you stay warm we have to have you sleep in the pj's with the long sleeves and feeties.
* You will usually sleep for 8-12 hours every night
* You and Mimi have gotten a schedule where you take one nap a day. You usually go to sleep around 1:15 and will sleep for 45 min. - 1:30. Every once in a while you will take a nap that is a couple hours long or longer :)
* Mommy is still working full time and wants to stay home with you badly!!! She misses all her cuddle time with you!!!! She dreams of the day when she can stay at home and be "Super Mom" to you~~~
* You can sit in your Bumbo now, without any help. Mommy and Daddy have now brought out your high chair though, and let you sit in there to eat so that you can also eat your little finger foods too.
* You love to play!!! You love to play in your jumperoo and walker. You also love to sit on the floor and play with your other toys. Your favorites at home are your Cruise and Crawl Fisher Price Play n' Go, Ball Bounce Dino, and Dunk n' Cheer Basketball goal.
* You started babbling alot this month. You say Mom Mom Mom Mom and Da Da Da Da. Towards the end of the month when you say Mom Mom Mom you would look at me and Da Da Da and you would look at Daddy.
* You have also started to wiggle your fingers like you are trying to wave when someone says Bye Bye. :) Such a cutie!!!
* You are really ticklish below your chin and Mommy can usually get you giggling non-stop when she starts tickling you there :)

Last time we went to Houston was back in November. The doctor said that your cyst is still getting smaller and we should just keep waiting because hopefully it will just go away on its own! :) We are so glad that are little one is growing up so happy and healthy! You are our JOY and LOVE!!!! You make us smile so many times each day!!!! What did we do before you?
