9 Months!

Sweet baby Charlotte! 9 months has just snuck up on us way too fast!  This months she's really been on the move and is starting to get into EVERYTHING!!  She pulled herself up for this first time this past month (on May 5th) so no longer can we place things just a little out of her reach because she will get to them.  She doesn't like to sit still, as evident from the pictures, and although she is still army crawling, she is FAST!  

She continues to be as sweet as can be with such a happy demeanor.  She continues to bring so much joy to our lives and we just all love Baby Lar Lar so much.

I have three baskets underneath the hutch which store the kids school stuff and they have become her favorite "go to and mess up spot."  The baskets are now on top of the hutch (which drive me crazy) but at least I'm not constantly putting everything back in and checking her mouth for bits of paper.  Speaking of mouth...she continues to put everything in it.  Thankfully we haven't had any choking incidences as she tends to keep whatever it is on her tongue for awhile playing with it giving us some extra time to get it before its gone!

Sweet baby girl still sleeps on the go a lot during the day and we are looking forward to summer when *maybe* she'll get a decent nap at home every few days.  Thankfully it doesn't seem to phase her.

Just a few sweet pictures of her hanging in the driveway while the kids play in the cul de sac on May 22nd.

Practicing her clapping!

She has discovered these cubbies, too, this past month and has started crawling up to theem, getting on her knees and taking everything out.  Ahhh...let the fun begin!!

Again, so proud of herself!

And, this happened this past month!! So much for a leisurely Target trip with just her. I swear she did this in about two seconds!  Back to the ergo for her while in Target from this point forward!  

Happy 9 months sweet baby girl!!  We love you, your big blue eyes, your wide mouthed smile and your chubby rolls!
