Long Overdue

It has taken me a while to post her nine month photo (only three months left to plan her birthday, eek), sorry. But I have a good reason for it. Last Sunday I was walking to church for a special stake fireside, when I fell and fractured both my elbows. You heard  right, both elbows from a simple fall on a simple walk. Nothing exciting like skateboarding or  new exercise routine. It's taken me a while to get back into the groove of things. I'm doing better, and am able to do more things. I'd show everyone a picture of my double splints I had for a few hours on Monday, but it's a really unflattering photo.

Lilybelle is getting so much fun. I can actually play with her now. She interacts with me. We like to stack things up, and she likes to tear it down. She plays with Sophie, and enjoys swinging. We went down to my parents' house for Memorial weekend and put her in the swing. She really liked it. She's also started to feed herself. She loves to hold the cereal in both hands and then eat from her right hand and leave a piece in her left hand for later.



She's also getting more independent. Because of this independence I've been able to resume doing some crafty stuff. I made a wreath for our front door that I thought turned out great. Thanks Pinterest!

Taking her nine month photo was a hoot. She was such a ham for the camera. As I looked through the many photos Tim took I realized that she had almost every facial expression possible in these photos. Happy, sad, tired, angry, etc. I kinda miss the one month old that couldn't move when we took her photo.




On Friday we went to the pediatrician for her nine month check up. She's 27.5 inches long and 15.10 pounds. Tall and skinny. She's in the fifty percentile for height and five for weight. My mom and dad came up  to help me get her to the pediatrician and so afterwards we went to lunch and did some shopping.

Finally a video that has been months in the making. We got her jenny jump up as a gift and tried it out when she was younger, but all she did was chew on it. Now she has finally gotten the hang of it.
