You've officially been "OUT" longer than you were "IN". That. is. Crazy.
Our pride and Joy...you have redefined what LOVE means...
And I can't believe you are 9 months old. It's absolutely shocking how much you are changing, growing, and developing right before our eyes...
It seems that this month, you became a little person. You have absolutely mastered crawling and oh boy do you keep us busy by getting into things! Of course...anything that you shouldn't get into...you do!! (hello!!! We have hundreds of toys just for your enjoyment...and yet you only want to pull on the cable cords or play with the cardboard boxes that they come in). You love to mimic what we do and my favorite memory of that this month was when we would throw our head back and laugh, and you would do the same. You clap when people clap...
And think so many things are just down right hilarious!!! I love love LOVE your giggle and when you laugh. It's a hearty belly laugh...with a high pitch voice. So stinkin cute! Speaking of stinkin' cute...check out that double chin!!! Love it!!!
When you want more of something, you pull your fists close to you and get a really intense face as you open and close your fists really really fast (LOVE THIS!)
Your two favorite games to play right now are "Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "Peek-a-boo", which you take any and every chance you can to play it (on the changing table with the window curtain...or any time there is a blanket around).
You have learned how to share...but quickly want whatever you gave away back so that you can really have it....and I hate to admit, but it seems that we have a bit of a mischievous little girl on our hands. A few times now, you have chased Sami (your puppy) and when you get to her, you pull her tail really hard, and then look at us [whoever is in the room] and do an evil sort of a laugh "muahhh ha ha ha". Where you learned that? I have no idea. It's evil...but oh so funny. Oh - and remember that "9 month" Sticker that we put on you for this photo shoot?? It didn't last long (Caption of the picture below: "Begone Sticker!!"
You are eating lots of new foods this month (pineapple and chicken! Yum! String cheese and cucumbers you like a lot too!), are standing up on anything you can pull yourself up on, and for the first time of your life, you have started to react (fake cry mostly) when mom or dad "leaves" you alone and/or with someone else. Luckily, this "almost crabby" moment that you get when we leave only lasts a second or two...because you are easily distracted to whatever catches your eye next:)
Adelyn Elizabeth Carmack - every day you grow more and more into the child that God created you to be, and it. is. beautiful. I love our snugly moments, reading books (Hungry Caterpillar and Goodnight Gorilla are your current favorites), and our crazy fun moments too (dancing, chasing you, and even picking up all your toys over and over again). I love your out of control hair (some things never change). You truly are our precious gift from God who we love more and more with every passing day.
