phoebe's nine months

Our little miss is not so little!
Nine months with this beauty around...

Phoebe is:

... a shark. She has eight teeth all the way through -- almost one for every month she's been alive. She's toothy! As expected, she's been quite drool-y and anything she can get her hands on goes into her mouth. [PS - baby-proofing is *much* more difficult when there are bigger kids around who leave out there small little things... It's been trickier this time around...]

... a quick little crawler. She still prefers her side-wider army crawl, but she spends half of the time on her hands and knees. She's also started pulling herself up to things, but hasn't quite figured out how to be very steady on her feet yet. But she wants to be big like her sisters and constantly tried to be where they are. 

... using her voice. She figured out how to shriek/squeal/scream recently, much to the dismay of my hearing. We've been working on using "nice words" -- to which her response is to growl. She has figured out how to get attention! Ha. But she's getting better at using her nice words and growls frequently. She sounds like a little cub of some sort most of the time. It's the funniest thing! 

... bouncy. When she hears a beat or gets excited, her little body shakes up and down. It's adorable. She feels it from her head to her toes. When she's on her back or her belly, she also does this funny little leg pop over and over. I've never seen anything like it!

... still a momma's girl, through and through. She is very aware of strangers, and generally will look to me for approval before smiling or interacting with others. And at the end of the day, she still just wants to snuggle me. [Though, I must admit, Afton might give me a run for my money in this race. She consistently makes Phoebe laugh the very most, and Phoebe loves, loves, loves her sisters.]








These sisters love each other!
