Happy Nine Months Josie!


What a great time of year to be 9 months old! Just as Josie is getting to be more mobile, the weather is beautiful for us to spend lots of time outside. Today, on her 9 month birthday we put her in her bathing suit for the first time. We're going to blow up her kiddy pool later today and chill out in this hot weather!


At nine months, J is crawling at lightening speed and pulls her self up in a flash! She's walking along the edge of the fireplace and couch, but hasn't really let go yet to test her balance. I don't think it will be long before she takes her first steps all on her own! This month we finally got the baby gates installed at the top and bottom of the stairs, so it's a nice freedom she has to crawl around while mama gets chores done.


We're also proud to say, sleeping through the night SOLID for the last 4 weeks. Not a single wake for a pacifier or anything at all. Down for bed by 8pm and out like a light, all on her own. We're so proud of our big girl and her great sleeping habits! She's still a great napper - at least 3 naps a day around 10, 2 and 6


Her latest talents include waving, especially when you say buh-bye. She now understands a game of "I'm gonna get you" b/c now she crawls in a scurry in the other direction laughing as she goes. And we also think Mimi taught J peak a book - and it's pretty darn cute. OH! And last but not least... tooth #3 made its appearance today :) Upper right!
