. 9 in, 9 out .

that's right.  sweet baby was in my tummy for 9 months, and now she's been in my arms for 9 months.  it's been 3/4 of a year already.  WHOA!  and so for my every month favorite phrase "can you believe it?"


077 


and, so at 9 months, mykah ...


* has 4 teeth ... 2 top, 2 bottom.  and she knows how to use them.


* throws everything she doesn't want.  crackers.  toys.  blankets.  throws them.


* thinks sissy is the coolest ever.


* has highly contagious baby giggles and smiles.  she smiles all the time.  seriously.


* loves to eat frozen peas and anything else other than baby food. 


* today we found out that she likes cheetos.  thanks sissy.  we'll pay for that one later when we change her diaper.


* eats breakfast, lunch, & dinner, plus 4 bottles.


* says "dada", "nana", and "lala"


* insists on standing (with help) and has attempted taking steps, although she falls flat on her sweet little face.


* loves to cuddle.  and i love that.  


* and cooperates rather well when i take her pictures.  :)  which you know i love.

{i promise my child is happy.  she always looks so sad in pictures, but that would be because she knew i was taking her picture and refused to smile.  as always.}
