Nine Months

Another month has flown by. No teeth yet, but she mouths everything. She understands enough to spit things out when I tell her to, which is good!
Nora also knows what to do with a comb and a headband, and nuzzles in for more when you kiss her cheeks. She plays peek-a-boo with us, and has a generally cheerful disposition. She also loves to read books with us, especially feely ones. Her hair has gotten long enough where I would probably cut it  if she were a boy. She has wavy wisps around her ears now that are very cute. She makes the funniest sounds with her mouth. One is a seething sound through her closed gums and another is a loud click she makes with her tongue hanging out. She has a breathy little laugh and loves being entertained by her brothers. She is very much a mama's girl, but also loves Paul's silly antics. I know last month I wondered if she'd be walking soon, but I seriously doubt she will. She doesn't like it when we try to walk with her holding onto her hands, and will sit dow then try to get picked up. She just seems to get more and more fun!
*Nine month stats: 17 lbs. 13 oz. (33% weight), 27 1/2" (43% height), 17 3/8" (55% head circumference).

What a pretty little chunk of cuteness! Haha. She just seems so pleasant and even proper in this picture :)

I also love the arm rolls. Takes after the best at her age, huh, Sarah? haha

She's cute. :)

I can't wait to see her soon! The only weird thing is, she'll already be one. And Johnny will turn one while we're together. Can you believe how fast this year has gone?!!
