Two front teeth and words

Hadley has popped out two front teeth. They are just starting to show. It will really change her look. I can't believe our little baby has two front teeth. Speaking of baby she can say that word now. Yesterday, she started saying it. Ba be in a soft voice as she smiles.

I was putting her in her car seat and while I was doing so I handed her a book with baby faces and she said it, ba be, and it was in the right context. So at Grandma's today we gave her a little baby to play with and said the word hundreds of times.

This week we don't have much planned. Tomorrow we get to watch Nevaeh for a few hours. Wednesday we have Faith in Action. Thursday, I think we are free. Friday, I am busy with work, both at the Messenger and BeLa's. Saturday we get to go shopping! Hopefully we will find some good deals. We really need to get some everyday outfits for Hadley as well as essentials.

I guess we have a lot going on as usual.
Tonight Hadley had chicken and veggies for dinner. She went upstairs for bath time at 7:30 and was in bed at 8:00. She went to bed without a fuss. She woke up once last night around 2:45am and nursed. She got up for the day at 7:00 am. So we will see what tonight brings. Hopefully one of these days she will sleep through the night.

Good Night!

9 months Doctor visit

This morning we had Hadley's 9 month doctor visit. She is in the 50th percentile for both height and weight. She weighed 19 lbs 6 oz and was 27.5" tall. She was a good little girl, a little cranky because she wanted to take her nap early.

We can see her gums are swollen where her top two teeth are. Any day hopefully we will have a tooth pop through. One tooth did come through but has decided to go hide again.

For lunch today, Hadley is having chopped broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. She started with some O's, however, I don't think these are her favorite anymore. She really loves yogurt melts.

Off to Grandma's today for a few hours. Mommy has to run into the Messenger for a little work.

Happy 9 months!

Hi Baby Girl -
Happy 9 months on 09-09-09. Today you were perfect. First we went out for breakfast with the team at Mille Lacs Realty. You were a great little gal. You ate some of your O's and applesauce. Then we went to Grandma's house because Mommy had to work. You had a little more to eat because you were too busy to get full at breakfast. Grandma made you egg yolk.

It sounded like you were a great gal for her too. You took a long morning nap. Enjoyed your lunch. Played, crawled around, and knocked over the computer tower. I guess knocking over the tower isn't that great but at least you didn't get hurt.

Then you took an afternoon nap and I came and picked you up. We hung out for a bit and came home. At home you played, ate dinner, played some more. At 7pm we started bath time. You were so good. You love to find new things. Tonight you noticed the vent cover in the tub. You tried to get it twice. Of course the rule is you have to stay in your little ducky but you try to get out.

Both Daddy and I think you are going to be a mountain climber because all you want to do is climb. Stand up on the coffee table, sit down, stand up, anything and everything you can crawl on you do.

I just remembered that I forgot to take a picture of you today. But, I guess tomorrow will have to work because you are sleeping now. You went down to bed at 8pm. We gave you some cereal and you nursed. You woke up again at 10pm, I nursed you a little more. You had a little whine. We are still thinking teeth. We did see a little white spot on your front right tooth last week but it has since disappeared. Maybe soon we will see it full-time.

It is just so unreal that 9 months have passed up by. What will happen in the next 9? Who knows, stay tuned I guess. Hadley, we just love you soo much and we can't believe how much fun we have with you. Thanks for being such a wonderful little gal.

Love you!

Talking

Wow has time passed. It is September and Hadley will be 9 months on the 9th. YIKES!
We have had a great summer. We have been to the pool twice, the lake twice and went for many walks.
Hadley is crawling everywhere and can walk holding on to furniture. She is saying da da da da and ba ba ba ba... of course not ma ma ma ...
We love having her in our life. She is such a blessing.
Here are our summer pictures. Hadley was a little over 7 months.
Enjoy!
