Mighty Fine at Nine!

Yeah, I'm nine months old.  What a great month this last one was!  I've come a long way since 8 months - I hardly look like the same little lady.  I've been doing more talking, more sitting, more lunging, and even a little bit of scooting on my tummy.  Just a little bit though, I don't like scooting too much.  I prefer sitting.  When I sit, I can see so much further.  When I sit, both of my hands are free to interact.  When I sit, I'm almost as tall as Phin's knees - Phin has lovely knees.  Plus, when I sit my friend Oliver comes to sit next to me.  Don't worry Grandpa, he's usually wearing a shirt.


As much as I love sitting, my new fave is waving and trying to shout "hi."  I love waving.  I wave hello to Mommy and Daddy when I see them in the morning.  I wave good-bye when Daddy goes to work.  I wave hello at the store at strangers.  I wave to the entire family when we eat meals.  I wave goodnight when I go to bed.  And I wave to Phin whenever I see him (which is a lot).  Oh waving, you are so much fun - way more fun than scooting on my tummy.

Enough about waving... I know you came here to see my 9-month photos, so follow this link.  In the meantime, check out a few of my favs here.  For this photo shoot, we went and took some shots by some pretty gates around Old Town Alexandria.  Shout out to Cousin Patsy for my pretty purply dress.  Phin did a similar tour two years ago (towards the bottom of the album).




Lots of Love,
Amelia
