Fun times in Maryland!

Image
My new way of getting around! Snacks at the big kids' table! All this pool time is making me thirsty!

Such a big girl!

We had Samantha's 9-month check-up today. She weighed in at 17lbs 3ozs (25th percentile) and is 29 1/4 inches (90th percentile!). Samantha ate with a spoon for the first time this week and we're working on more finger foods instead of purees. She loves it!

Which face do you think is funnier?!

The week of change!

Samantha changed so much this past week! She has three new teeth coming in (two on top, one on the bottom), so pretty soon she'll have five teeth! She started crawling on Tuesday the 28th, but then decided on Thursday that crawling is overrated. She's back to scooting now - she can get around a lot faster! She also started pulling herelf up on things. First in the crib, and now everywhere! She pulls up on toys, chairs, couches, whatever she can get a grasp on! She sees something new to pull up on and she scoots faster to get there. :) She also started sitting up on her own (finally!). Before last week she was way too interested in scooting to sit still. She can now go from scooting or laying on her belly to pushing herself up into a sitting position. What a big girl! At daycare they tell me they're just waiting for her to take off walking! I'll try to find some good videos and post them when I can.

I'm 8 months old now!

Happy Easter!!!

Mmm.... rice cereal!

Image
Samantha tried rice cereal for the first time yesterday. Eating with a spoon is fun, but maybe something a little more tasty would be nice... Big bite! Hmm... this isn't so bad. And another bite... Not so good after all! No more!! I'd rather just eat my foot...

Sam and cousin Charlotte :)
