Funny pictures

She's a little diva in training!
This is what she does when we ask for a kiss!

We're headed to Maryland tomorrow - I'm looking forward to the trip and I really hope Kayla is good on the plane for everyone else's sake.

Words

Kayla has turned out to be quite a loquacious baby! She talks to herself all the time and babbles to everyone. Some of these babblings have turned into her first words. She can say:

Baby (she says this when she sees pictures of herself)
Uh-oh
Bye Bye
Baba - her bottle
Mama and Daddy are still rather vague at this point. I think she says them but it's not often.

Here's a recent photo:She loves to point at things! She also has 8 teeth now and we are trying to teach her how to drink from a cup.

Tooth #7

Kayla has cut her 7th tooth. This one is on the bottom. After a few nights of her waking due to the pain we found something called Teething Tablets that seem to work pretty well. She's sleeping better now and the tooth is through.

Here are a few recent photos:




She's crawling super fast but hasn't shown much interest in walking yet. She does cruise a little bit while holding onto things though.

We plan on holding her 1st Birthday on November 1st at Clinton Nature Preserve with a polka dot theme! All are invited!

9 Month Stats

We had Kayla's well baby visit today and she is doing great.

She weighs 21 pounds and is 28.5 inches long.

The doctor gave her to OK to eat meat and table foods as long as they are mushy and easy for her to swallow. She is where she needs to be developmentally and is perfectly healthy.

I noticed her right pupil is slightly larger than her left but the Dr. says this is nothing to worry about and that her eyes are fine. Just another unique thing about her!

They had to prick her toe to test for anemia (she's fine) and they covered her toe with a bright pink band-aid. She didn't cry at all but once we were in the car she started sucking on the toe that had the band-aid on it and I had to take it off. She wasn't too happy about that!

Kayla's 9 month pictures

Here are a few from her session at the mall by Picture People. They turned out great!


She's been a little sleepyhead lately! I think all that crawling really wears her out!

Last night she slept from 6:30pm to 7:30am. Going for her well baby visit tomorrow - no shots! Hooray!

9 Months!

Kayla is a big 9 month old today! Hooray!

She is pulling herself up from the floor now which means it's only a matter of time before she figures out her legs are good for something - walking!

Here are her 6 month professional photos and then a recent photo to compare changes.





Here's a photo from this week:
I think she's lost some of her chubby cheeks!
