Happy 9 Months

(Photo by Twinty Photography)

Ella is 9 months old today!  She has completely stolen our hearts and we just can't get enough of this precious, happy baby!  Ella has changed a lot this month, and here are a few things she's been up to:
- LOVES music and will wave her arms and try to "sing" anytime she hears it
- in a bit of a mommy stage right now, if I'm in the room she definitely prefers for me to hold her but will go to Daddy too.  If I'm not around, she's fine with anyone holding her :)
- can wave bye bye
- smiles all the time and is so easy to please
- Griffin is her favorite person!  She lights up, squeals, and kicks anytime he comes around.  She loves when he takes a bath with her too.
- has completely given up all pureed baby food and only eats soft table food.  This has been pretty nice considering I can cook dinner and everyone in the house can eat it...doesn't mean they always do ;).  So far I haven't found anything she won't eat but her favorites are bananas, avocado, beans, cheese, pancakes, and fish
- loves to roll around in her bed and play with her lovies before she falls asleep
- such a good, easy sleeper- 2 naps a day and sleeps 12 hrs at night
- becoming frustrated with not crawling, she wants to get to toys so badly but can't quite get there...kinda sad.  I will do a post on this later, but Ella will be starting physical therapy soon to strengthen her core muscles.
- such a love bug, cuddle bear, sweet little sugar pie...can you tell how much I love her?  An indescribable amount!!!
