Letter to 9 Month Old GJ

Dear my sweet Gracie June,

It has been 9 months since you came into this world and graced us with your presence! The last 9 months have been some of the best days of my life. Getting to have you as my little girl, is such an amazing thing! You are one of the happiest babies that I've ever known.

This month's firsts:

You started saying "mama" a lot this month! I LOVE it :)

You crawled for the first time a few days ago. You aren't crawling a lot yet, but you did start to get the concept.

You had your first Easter this month! You got to go to Caycen's Easter Egg Hunt at school, you saw the Easter Bunny, and you watched all of your cousins hunt Easter Eggs in Warner Robins too.

You're pulling up on things to your knees all the time now. I think your feet are just too tiny for you to stand! haha!

You started clapping a lot this month and sometimes it sounds like you're saying "yay", which is what we say when you clap.

Things you're loving:
Eating! You're eating great. You eat baby food 2-3 times a day and you still take 5 1/2 ounces at every bottle, which is usually every 4 hours.
Sleeping! You sleep SO SO good!!! You usually go to bed around 8:30 and wake up at 7:00-7:45, except on days that mommy has to work.
You LOVE Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Little Einsteins, and any other singing show. You love watching Caycen play, pulling up on Mommy, your rubber ducky still, Daddy's goofy faces, anyone singing to you, playing with toys, and smiling!
