9 Months

I'm 9 months old and there is so much I can do these days. I crawl really fast and like to get into things. I pull myself up to standing and have discovered a whole new range of motion. I love to chase after Fergus but he doesn't stick around long enough for me to catch him. My cousin Harper is my favorite source of entertainment. He moves so fast I can barely keep up just watching him. I also love to laugh at my Auntie B and Uncle Stephen. They are so funny!

I'm eating a lot of new foods lately. Correction... at least trying a lot of new foods. I haven't liked everything but I'm working on it.

I went to the doctor for my 9 month check up and I'm doing great. I weigh 16 lbs 15.6 oz and I'm 27.6" tall. I didn't have to have any shots this time which was awesome!

Mama's hamburger bun...

I didn't quite get finished eating my lunch before Skylar woke up from her nap so I finished eating while she played. She was so interested in my food that I gave her pieces of my bun. Yes I know, what's the big deal? It's only bread right! Well this was her first time to have any kind of bread. I have been worried about a wheat allergy that I haven't given her any bread to speak of until today. She loved it and her facial expressions were so cute we started taking pictures. Here are a few of what we got.

Snackin' and Laughin'...

Babble...babble...babble.....

Horsey Ride

Hiking for Mother's Day

I had a very low key Mother's Day just the way I like it. We all went hiking at a local dog park. It was a lot of fun and Skylar got to see a lot of dogs in one place and a panoramic view of Los Angeles. It was also her first time to get to ride on mommy's back in the carrier. She loved it!

Trying out the new tub...

Mommy thought I needed more space to splash around and boy was she right! I have so much more room now and I get more toys to play with. My new tub even folds up flat after use. So cool!

A Day at The Park

The many faces of Skylar! We think she has another tooth coming because we are getting a myriad of new facial expressions and lots of drooling.
