Lily at 9 months!


So here she is at nine months old! She is all over the place and usually has this happy grin on her face. I can't believe it's been nine months since I held this little girl for the first time. She brings so much joy to our family - we are so very blessed.


Some things for the record book...At 9 months Lily is


  • Pulling up on everything and cruising around the furniture like a pro.

  • Standing for several seconds at a time before plopping back down on her bottom.

  • She has seven teeth and the cutest little grin in the world!

  • She weighs just over 16 pounds.

  • It's not in the book yet, but we're pretty sure she knows who she's talking about when she says Mama and Dada.

  • She adores Luke and always wants to see what he's doing. She drives him crazy trying to touch whatever he's playing with, but he is super sweet with her and will always go get her another toy to play with.

  • She still loves her Mommy best when she's sad or tired and I still occasionally get to rock her to sleep. Just thinking about it now brings tears to my eyes.

She is such a precious girl and we love her so much! And on that note, a final picture...
