Ashley: 9 Months

Ashley Elizabeth at 9 months:
I can't believe she's nine months old! In three more months we'll be having the birthday blowout. Jenna insists Bebe would like a "Pony Party" a la her third birthday party but we will see. We still have some time yet. Ashley is crawling, pulling up and standing on her own. She is never still!! She has tried to take a step or two to me but has gone down flat on her face. I am sure she will be walking before her birthday (unlike sitting duck Jenna).
Blowing bubbles and making crazy sounds is another favorite thing to do these days...
She clearly wanted a profile picture. She kept turning to the side!
Showing us all how big and tall she is! I really do love how little she is because Jenna never had a little day in her life! Ash is built more like me. I really think I was five years old before I was Jenna's height now at three years old!More bubbles...
So happy to be! Ash still adores her big sis and her furry big sis (Molly) too! She tries to sneak up on her and when she gets close she sticks out one hand with her index finger pointing at Molly. Then she gets so excited she squeals with delight. Molly hears her and makes a run for it!Standing at the coffee table - the new hang out for babies...
This is a "Classic Ashley" face. I do have another one like this from the other day that I haven't gotten to posting yet but THIS IS ASHLEY. She IS a VERY happy baby but she does make this face a lot. TOO FUNNY! (Family, do you agree? Isn't this CLASSIC ASH?!)This is a face she does all the time. I have several pictures like this - just from today!
Ashley still loves sweet potatoes and bananas and now she also loves beef, anything with a tomato sauce (another Ketchup Queen, perhaps?), baked potatoes, turkey or chicken and rice and mac and cheese. (OF COURSE!!) She is still not crazy about juice but we are working on it.

Ash is still wearing size 2 diapers and size 3-6 month clothes. I think I may start putting her in 6-9 month pajamas because she seems to need more room length wise.

Tomorrow Ash has her nine month check up with her pediatrician. Bebe assures me her stature has increased...That would explain the tight pajamas. More to come tomorrow along with the rest of the 4th pictures!
