9 months and counting

My sweet baby girl turned 9 months last week. Here are a few things I want to remember about this stage:

Height: 26.5 inches (between the 5th and 10th percentile)
Weight: 16 lbs and 9 ounces (between the 10th and 15th percentile)
Head: 18.75 inches (90th percentile)

The little Miss started crawling this past week, therefore we've had to re-babyproof our house.

A few weeks ago she started whistling. It is hilarious! At first she came about it on accident, but now whenever we whistle she mimicks us. It's more of a sucking in whistle than pushing the air out whistle.

She also started holding her own bottle this past month. She could hold it before but needed our help to guide it. Now she does it all by herself. What does she need mommy and daddy for!?! :(

She is really good at copying sounds. Whatever we say, she repeats... "mama", "dada", "bubba" (brother). Of course she has no idea what she's saying.

Her favorite person in the world is Cohen, BY FAR! It doesn't matter what he's doing, if he's in the room her eyes are on him. He can pretty much just be his goofy self and he has her rolling laughing. Not just a little giggle. He can get her going like no one else can!

I'm trying to cherish this baby stage while she's still in it. With #3 right behind her, I know that she won't be able to be the baby of the house for too long!
