Reese is 9 months!!

Reese the 9 month old!!!


I am in shock that my little baby is 9 months old! Even in more shock that she weighs in at 23 lbs 13 oz and is 28.5 inches long. That is 100th% for weight and 90th% for height...WOW! Henry weighed the same at this age but was 1.5 inches taller.

her hair is red and falls in a natural mohawk!!


she loves to stand by things!



So time to eliminate the afternoon bottle which I do not think she will mind because she is loving solid foods so much. She does love to eat but is not really motivated by food all that much unlike her brother at that age!


She does have the same love for being busy and constantly moving like her brother. So maybe her chunky monkey form will come in handy to keep up with her constant on the go mentality. A question that is often asked in our house is "Where is the baby?" She loves getting into everything and some of her favorite activities include, but are not limited to:

*opening all the kitchen drawers and emptying them
*following her brother around the house while he crawls too!
*crawling into her brothers room and trying to get into the bed
*pushing her way into any room in the house and looking for trouble
*grabbing the dogs and climbing them
*grabbing her brothers toys from him
*screaming and laughing if no one is looking at her
*babbling and yelling all sorts of sounds
*and my favorite throwing her water off of her highchair once every 30 seconds!

Here is a video of her just hanging out. Sorry for all the shaking :)



She truly is a delight and 9 months may be my favorite age ever! She is always smiling and chatting. She adores her brother and daddy. You should see her little face light up when either of them come into the room. She and I have a special thing going on too and I find her to be my little zen maker in the household. She is just the perfect little daughter and personality. She is so mellow and sweet but if you push her or try to get her to do something she does not like watch out. I like that about her and think it will take her a long way in life. She and Henry continue to be so incredibly different. One thing they have in common though is that they both are perfect (I can say that because I am their Mom) and I have never loved two little people more!!

Stay tuned because tomorrow morning we are bringing the fire men doughnuts!!!
