Nine Months!

Amelia celebrated her 9 month birthday. I can't believe that she's getting so "old" so quick. It's been a great journey so far... with many ups and downs. Here are some of the things she has been doing this past month:

* Loves to eat meat, her favorite is chicken, but she has had pulled pork, steak and ground beef.

* Doesn't like or know how to crawl, but instead motors around on her tushy by hopping up and down like a little kangaroo.

* Loves to talk a lot, especially in the morning. I will hear her on the monitor talking to her bear and dog, Biscuit.

* Is really loving Emmy. Everytime Emmy comes near her while she's in her exersaucer, she starts jumping up and down like a mad woman. In addition, she loves watching Emmy while she's eating.

* Still enjoys eating her vegetables.

* Has four teeth! I was feeling around her mouth Saturday and felt a "fang", so her upper right canine tooth has popped. Then today her left "fang" popped.

* Enjoys playing with her bath toys, squeezing them, then letting the water squirt out.

* Is almost at 27" according to our measurements... weight, unknown as the scale is broken.

* Still has a morning, afternoon and evening nap.

* Likes to stand up a lot.

One exciting piece of news to tell you all about. Amelia is going to be a Nordstorm model! Saturday, while we were at the Olive Garden, we got a call from a lady who works at Nordstorm asking us if we wanted Amelia to be in a kids fashion show. Of course I said yes! So this next Saturday, Amelia is going to put on a pretty dress and strut the runway (with mommy). We hussled over to the Nordies last night after dinner to pick out an outfit. We went through several before we picked out a sleeveless dress. She even has a sweater to wear with it and cute little socks. The dress is a little big, as it's 12 months, but with the little bow, we can make it tighter and make it look not so big. We'll be taking it to Florida for a cousin's wedding. Should be fun. Her modeling debut will be at 8:30am Saturday. Hope she doesn't get a complex from her adoring fans!

Here is her latest bear comparison!

Wow! Look at how much she's grown from 3 weeks to 9 months! She's gonna be as tall as Mr. Bear soon! I've been doing the same thing with J ... taking his picture each month next to Thumper. It's a great way to chronicle how big they've gotten each month!
