This is the view from nine months...
My baby can barely be contained in a stroller and will definitely NOT sit still for photo shoots. Kevin turned her stroller seat around today, and she loved it! He told me that she is starting to realize she sleeps differently. He feels like she sleeps more soundly, and as he put it, "more like a toddler." I told him to bite his tongue.
She weighed about 13.5 lbs at the doctor's a few days ago. She's crawling everywhere, eating everything and talking our heads off. She loves to be tickled and play peek-a-boo.
Nine months is a special time to me. Up until this point, I've reigned supreme as her mother. I have held her longer than anyone else, during pregnancy. But now, now the world is in charge. Her days outside of my body are now fewer than those in the open air of life. She is truly a baby of the world. I miss the days when it was just the two of us, wrapped in a silent cocoon and able to shut everyone else out...
Awww. She can't be 9 months old already. And she is such a cutie!
