9 months

My little baby girl turned 9 months last Friday.


I am way behind on blogging but I had to get a picture up with a little note. Sorry for it's length, but this blog has now become my journal and way of documenting all the precious memories. Life goes so fast and I can barely remember some things about Evan as a baby, so my goal for 2010 is to do better documenting. I know its been almost 3 months since my last blog. I haven't been doing so hot, but I am determined now that I received my blog book for all past post from 2008-2009. It is amazing to have a copy all right there in one book. I love it! My intentions are not to bore anyone, so please feel free to skip all text and just look at pictures.

Hannah now has four teeth since her two top teeth have come in. And let me tell you they sure don't feel good when she bites down. She sits up really good, but that's about it. She is not interested in crawling. I put her on her tummy everyday, however she is not a fan, therefore crawling is out of the question. Oh well, one day she will get it. It doesn't really bother me too much because that just means I will have to follow her around all the time. So I guess, take your time Hannah :)

Hannah has turned into a pretty good eater and is now even eating all my homemade baby food. Good thing because I thought it was going to have to go to waste. She has also stated eating cheerios and loves to pick them up, which has made her a much happier camper while sitting in her highchair. I have also found her brother handing her various food items such as cookies, crackers, quesadilla, berries, and other foods while I am not looking. She always seems to enjoy them, however we have had to have little talks with Evan about feeding his sister. I don't want the day to come when she breaks out in some kind of reaction or chokes because he gave her a piece of food.

I wouldn't call Hannah a smile all the time happy baby, but she does smile big when she wants to. She is more of the serious kind. I guess it runs in the genes. I love spending time alone with her even if it is a few short minutes. It is hard to give all of your attention to one child when they aren't the only child but I am glad to have them both. I couldn't imagine life without my little girl. She has a totally different personality than Evan. She is very attached to me and has a hard time being held by others. I swear she knows my scent. It is the weirdest thing. Hannah is going to have the hardest time when I go back to work this fall and she has to go to a babysitter. It is going to break my heart, but at least Scott will be the one to drop her off. I am not looking forward to that day. I have loved spending everyday with my kids the last 9 months.

Hannah you are my sweet pea and I love you to pieces!
