9 Months

We don't know where the time keeps sneaking off to, but we have a very happy, healthy, and sweet 9 month old baby girl (actually as I write this, she's more like 9.5 months.)  Maizy continues to impress us with her social skills and bubbly personality.  She loves people, animals, and leaves.  She stuffs leaves, and anything else she can get her hands on, into her mouth and smiles, as if we won't be able to tell she has something in there if she distracts us with her beautiful smile...  we are in trouble with her, lol.  She loves crawling super speed, and pulls herself up to standing on almost anything.  She walks well along furniture and while holding our hands, but hopefully we have a couple of months before she is walking independently.  She has a stand up piano toy she loves to bang on, and she is now getting good control of using her sippy cups. 

I'll add a few of her latest pictures.  She now weighs 18 lbs., and is in the 50th percentile for weight, and 46th for height.  She eats 3 meals a day, and has a few bottles or sippies in between.
