Abby's 9 months old

We finally got to move into our own house! You love exploring and pulling up on everything!

First Hawaii Parade


You love bath time and drinking from the sand castle bucket, you've finally figured out how to slowly dump it, for days you would dump and cough as it hit your face too forcefully.

Somehow you managed to get the avocado everywhere - because you like to feed yourself meal time is always quite a mess

You love pushing the chairs all over the kitchen and get so frustrated when they get stuck

Happy snack time - mmmm purple sweet potato


Lounging!

You are always happy in the bath and race to the edge of it if we leave the bathroom door open on accident.
You are such a ham and love to smile for the camera!

Another month has flown by - your first month in our new home in Kona! It has been crazy and so good!
We thought this might be the month you walked, but you have no interest in taking off without holding on to something! This makes me so happy - when you are ready you will be running as you push our chairs and boxes all over the house! 

Firsts:
Waved back to Mommy
Stood up in you high chair (luckily without accident)
Slept through the night (after cutting out your midway through the night feeding you are mostly sleeping from 8-3 or 4 every night)
Sending a text - opps - to our neighbor, luckily I had started it so it wasn't just garble
Truly solid poop
Watching horses
Drinking from a straw - and spiting it back out about 50% of the time

Things you love -
Cups and drinking from cups
Watching and playing with your sister
Pushing chairs and boxes around
Books
Baby dolls - kissing them and sucking on their hands and feet
Feeding yourself - although you are getting less enthusiastic about this
Nursing
Playing with doors
Thinks that light up or make noise
Being held
Having your picture taken
Autumn reading you the Dora potty book
Things you dislike -
Being put down or into the car seat - depending on your mood
Seeing a cup you want and us not sharing or getting you your own cup
Running out of food on your plate
Being handed to someone other than mommy or daddy, when other people reach for you, you bury your head into our chest or clinch our shirt.

Things that make you Abby -
Your head sweats a lot and have very waxy ears
You have started picking under our finger nails - ouch
Your ear to ear grin
You are tiny - I'm eager to find out how much you weigh on Wednesday at your 9 mo appointment
You pee after I get a diaper off and as I'm putting a new one on and still open about 60% of the time
Your eyes have not decide what color to be - I think they will end up orangey green like mine - but they go between greeny orange, gray and blue

We cherish you and are so blessed by your smiles, giggles, cuddles and love!!!
Hugs,
Mommy and Daddy
