Addison 9 Months old!!!

First I have to post our 8 month photo with a few of things that has happened in month 8.   Addie sprung her first tooth on the lower tooth O to be exact.  Her neck is getting much stronger and she is tolerating being on her belly more and more.   She started waving or should I say flopping her hand and saying hi  or HIIIIIIII.

I can't even begin to tell you how weird it is that Addie is 3 months away from being 1.  Time has just flown by.  When it has come to some of the motor skills Addie has taken her time. For this I am grateful and can honestly say the Lord has been mindful of me and has given me what he knows I can handle.  Just in the last few weeks Addie has been rolling over and moving around while on her tummy.  I am sure in just a few short weeks we will have a crawler on our hands!!  Tooth P is coming through so now we have 2 teeth.  It still looks like one because tooth O is more in the P so at times she looks like a little hillbilly!!  Addie has also discovered her tongue and likes to stick it out and make noises with it.  When she is eating to likes to blow "bubbles" with food in her mouth and laugh.  I think she totally knows that she is spraying mom with food and finds it funny.  She also likes to bounce around for instance when she is in her high chair it seems that I am always trying to feed a moving target and sometimes her eye is mistaken for her mouth.  I still can carry her in the Bjorn and she loves facing out.  If you see us out in public she is the kid that kicks her feet none stop (did I mention it is hard to walk when someone strapped to you is kicking you forward all the time) and tries to get as much eye contact from strangers that she can get.  Addie also learned to drink from a straw just this week.  I admit I have an addiction to Starbucks double chocolaty chip frappe but hey it has been uses as a teaching tool and Addie mastered the straw so it's a good addiction right?  This is one happy, snugly, loving little girl.  Happy 9 months to my sweet baby.
