9 months



Charlotte's 9 months of life have gone by much more quickly than the 9 months she grew in my tummy. For sure. She started crawling the day she turned 9 months. Now she is almost 10 months and she is constantly pulling herself up on things and especially my legs. This girl loves to be held. She just started walking along the couch.
At Char's 9 month appointment she was 29 inches long and 20 lbs 15 oz. She is totally into waving- during meal times, at people in Walmart, whenever. She has 2 bottom teeth and 4 on top- her grin is getting so toothy. In love with this sweet sweet baby.

headboard for sale
$12- fabric and batting not included :)
I made a super cute headboard with this plywood I purchased from Home Depot. I wanted to make a twin bed in Brooklyn's room into a daybed but the layout of the room never felt right to me.
This headboard can be yours for the $12 I paid for it. It is 78" wide and 48" tall at the tallest point. You could cut the sides to the width you need.

M's Pre Preschool Graduation
Mackenzie had Miss Leslie and Miss Britney for preschool teachers this year. Now she is so ready for kindergarten! She also enjoyed music and reading with Miss Sandy. I think she might be smarter than me already. Miss Leslie told me how much she enjoyed Mackenzie's sense of humor all year.
After the milestone graduation
Excited wave to her supporters
Karate performance
Mackenzie also participated in a mini music class taught by a lady in our neighborhood. She loved it! Here she is with her certificate and giant package of starburst after the graduation program.
