Happy 9 month birthday baby girl

This month has been so exciting. I got to celebrate my first Halloween and it was so much fun I especially liked getting dressed up as Raggedy Ann. I love to eat regular foods now I am not a big fan of the baby food anymore, eggs, pancakes and macaroni are my favorite! I am a speed crawler and I love to dance to any music I hear, I even dance in my car seat!! My favorite TV shows are Oso, Mickey Mouse and anything Sesame Street. I love to look at books with my Mom & Dad and point at all the cool pictures. I am starting to stand up here and there all on my own, poor Mommy can't leave me alone for a second. I now weigh 19lbs, Daddy says I need to get a JOB to pay for all my new clothes, LOL.... My brother is still my favorite person to play with he teaches me so many things I really love him.... See you next month

So excited for my 1st Halloween

So this is my first Halloween and Mommy helped me pick out my costume, do you like it? Can't wait to go Trick or Treating my brother tells me it is alot of fun...

8 months old already and Gabby is doing a whole bunch of new things.

She is now the fastest crawler in the south, we are finding her everywhere in the house.

She has begun standing herself up on the couch and anything she can hold on to, and once in awhile she tries to let go and stand all on her own.

I have finally heard her call Mama but only when she is really tired and cranky LOL..

Imitating everything her Daddy does is her favorite pastime!!!
Baby food is now her least favorite as she would rather have what we are eating.

She has been officially turned around in her carseat to the forward position and is very vocal about how happy she is to be able to see everyone!
The Disney channel has her favorite TV shows and she loves to sing and laugh with them.

We absolutely love this age and being able to play and laugh with her.
