BFFs!

Lorelai and Addie really are best buddies.  Addie loves to be close to her and protect her. 

Loves the highchair

Lorelai loves sitting in her highchair.  She is getting better and better at eating finger foods. 

Every kid loves Cheerios!

She doesn't like it when I pureed her peas...but when I steam them, she loves them!   MMMmmm PEAS!

BLOCKS!

I saw Lorelai playing with these multi-colored blocks and it seemed like a good picture taking opportunity.  So, I kinda went crazy with the pictures.  She's very photogenic but has a hard time staying still for a picture.  I got a few good ones though...

Can this smile get any bigger???

"Ok Mom...enough with the camera!"

9 Months Old!!!

9 months today!  Can you believe it?  It is going by so so so fast.  She changes so much all the time and each month gets more and more fun.  I love how she's learning to talk and walk.  She loves to go exploring and the only thing she fears is the vacuum cleaner (we're working on that).  She continues to be a very happy baby and we love her every day.

she does not want to sit still for this picture.  This is the best one I could get because she was crawling as fast as she could anywhere just to get out of the picture. 

Toys Toys Toys!

Sensory overload!  So much to play with!  Lorelai has learned to tip over her basket of toys that we keep in the livingroom and sometimes she has more fun doing that, than playing with the toys themselves.  I guess all kids love making messes.

Again, with the mirror.  She loves the baby on the other side.  I bought this to go on the headrest in the back seat so I can see her face when I turn around.  It plays music that I can control from the front seat with a remote.  She loves anything with a mirror and anything that plays music

Mirror mirror on the wall...

My baby is so vain.  She loves to look at herself in the mirror.  It is seriously one of her favorite things to do.  Maybe she's just intrigued by the baby on the other side?  Anyways, everytime we pass a mirror she smiles, giggles, and wants to check out the baby.  All I have to say is, "Lorelai, where's the baby?" and she starts looking around for the baby in the mirror. 

Don't touch that!

These are pictures of Lorelai exploring the dog's crate.  She loves to touch anything that isn't hers.  She is especially fond of anything belonging to the dog or cat, and she really likes to play with electrical wires.  You can't take your eyes off this one!

This is her response to me saying, "Lorelai! Where do you think you're going? I don't think so!"
