Feeding: You are such a good eater! You love everything you eat! The only think that you really don't care for are Avocados. Mommy was not very good about making baby food this month. But you started eating Sweet Peas, Peaches, and Spinach. You also started eating puffy cereal things- Banana, Sweet Potato, Cherry, and Apple. You also are eating these Baby Rice Cracker things. Every time I clean the high chair there are fewer and fewer pieces, so I know you are really getting the hang of putting food into your mouth. Still practicing with the sippy cup. Mommy only puts water in the cup. Still Breastfeeding. 9 months of Breastfeeding! Only 3 more months until we start to wean, so you better get your fill now!

Diapers: Size 3, Pampers Cruisers and Luvs
Clothes Size: 6-9 Months. Some 3-6 month dressy clothes still fit though.
Favorite Toy: You love Bun-Bun! Bun-Bun is a soft stuffed bunny that Nana and Gramma got you. Coley named Bun-Bun. You are all about Bun-Bun. She goes everywhere with you. I have a feeling that Bun-Bun will be a long-term love of yours.
Other Things You Do: You are crawling all over. Your little knees had bruises on them for a few weeks. You are starting to let go of things when you are standing- you stand for a split second, wobble, and fall! You are so alert. You never want to miss a beat.
Sweet Things You Do: Have I mentioned the slobbery kisses?!? You are always crawling up to me, with your mouth open, ready to slob all over my face. When I get you from your crib after a nap, you put your head immediately on my shoulder. It's one of my favorite moments with you.
Funniest Moment: You and Cole were playing one morning and you kept taking the balls from him. He started yelling, "Ce-Ce! Ce-Ce! Ava's not sharing her toys!" I told you to share with Cole, but your kept taking the balls. Finally Cole got up and moved himself and the toy across the room. What did you do? You followed him of course! It was as if you were saying, "Oh no you didn't!" I thought it was funny.
