9 Months!

Today my little baby is NINE months old! When did that happen? One day your at the hospital with your newborn and the next you are wondering if today is the day she is going to walk? Mila has turned into such a spunky little person with a HUGE personality! She is extremely independent and pretty darn stubborn. She has very much become a happy, smiley baby. I was a little worried for a while there because she was always so darn serious. I think the fact that she is sleeping for long stretches makes her happier- I know it makes ME happier :) She is so vocal with lots of screams, screeches, and growls in addition to the usual babbling. We hear alot of "ma ma" and "da da" but are sure they aren't intention.  Maybe soon? She's a very strong crawler and is so curious about everything. She gets into ALL of my cabinets! Something I never worried about when Gaby was a baby. So much so, that I actually had to put child locks on them. She is INSISTENT about crawling up and down the stairs. That my friends, is exhausting! She has become a wonderful eater. We quickly learned that she wanted NOTHING to do with baby food (trust me, I tried EVERY variety!). I guess it is a consistency thing. She likes to eat real food. She likes to chew and does pretty darn well with only two little teeth :) She will literally eat everything I put in front of her and I'm talking even things like hummus, olives, and pickles! So cute! All in all, we are loving every minute with our adorable sweetheart and looking forward to the many new milestones to come!

 Her stats from her doctor's appointment: 

Height: 27.5 in, 25% 

Weight: 18.1 lbs, 25%

She's our petite blessing!!
