Hello Everyone! I am officially 9 months old now and moving right along just as I should be. Would you expect anything different from me? Every time I hear Mommy talk about me, all she talks about is how perfect I am. I had my 9 month check up last week and I am weighing in at a whopping 17lbs and I am 29inces long. Needless to say, I am busting out of my 12 month PJ's but can still wear some 3 month pants as capri's. Speaking of clothes....my mom is having a really hard time with this for some reason. Every morning while I am laying in bed, drinking my bottle, wondering why I have just been woken up, I have to listen to her complain about how I have nothing to wear and nothing matches and what socks should I wear with this outfit and no not that outfit....what is wrong with her? Is it really that hard? I mean come on already! I would be perfectly fine with wearing my pj's all day and come to think of it, I would prefer not having my warm jammies ripped off me every morning and two layers of clothes put on just to go hang out at Aja's house. Really? What is wrong with that lady? Who cares what I wear? Do you? Well apparently she does!!! I am still my Daddy's girl! He is my favorite person in the whole wide world. My brother comes in a close second, but Daddy is #1 in my book. I love all men to tell you the truth. I love Aja's husband, I love anyone that has a deep voice actually. I think it is because they all remind me of my Daddy! I like my mom and everything, don't get me wrong, but I am crazy for my Daddy. When he gets home I go nuts. I do not let him out of my sight and I also do not let him eat anything without sharing with me. No matter how full I am, if my daddy is eating it....I need some too. I think I overheard Mommy telling Daddy last night that she is a little jealous. Perhaps I misunderstood her. Could it be? Mommy jealous? NO!!!! I have decided that I no longer like baby food and I think that is because baby food is for baby's and I am not a baby anymore. Too bad Mommy had just stocked up on baby food and rice cereal the day before I decided that no matter what, I am not opening my mouth for what she is going to give me. I love pasta, rice, cheetos, ice cream, pickles and donuts. I like sausage too, but Mommy says I am not supposed to have it...Daddy sneaks it to me whenever I want it. I am still an amazing sleeper....Mommy is trying to phase out the 5-7pm naps, but I am trying really hard to fight her on this one. If I sleep from 5-7, I do not have to deal with my brother and his temper tantrums and I get to stay up later and hang out with my dad all by myself while Mommy spends an hour putting my brother to sleep. I always sleep until my mom wakes me up to go to Aja's and on the weekends I have been known to sleep until 10:00. I love to sleep and I am pretty sure nobody is complaining. Well, maybe some of the people that come to see me, or want to come to see me, but Mommy and Aja are not complaining and let's be honest....who else matters? Well Daddy, but I think we already talked about him. I went to the pumpkin patch this weekend, but I will let my brother tell you all about it. I had a good time for the most part. I lost my shoe on the hayrack ride, I got scared by the corn cob shooter, I was not so sure of the real life scarecrow and I loved playing in the corn box. It was a first for me however.....the first day that I have not taken a nap. I slept for like 20 minutes in the car on the way home and that was it. I was pretty proud of myself. I never knew there was so much time in a day. I don't think I will make it a common practice any time soon however. Alright, well I had better let my brother use the computer and tell you all about his happenings.
Have a wonderful week everyone!
