9 Months

Time has flown by and Elise is already 9 months old today.
She has changed so much in the last few weeks (so incredibly much in just this past week!)

9 Month Stats
Weight: 18 lb 13 oz     50%
Height: 27 in     30%
Head:17 3/4 in     80%

Elise is such a special girl. She is becoming even more of herself if that makes any sense.  Her personality is wonderful and crazy and fun and demanding.  She makes herself known, loves to be held, hates being left alone, adores any kind of food, is super cuddly, and loves being included in all of our family's craziness.

Her big new trick is that she's finally crawling! She prefers more of a bum scooting type action but can move for a little bit just on her hands and knees.  I think she forgets that she has this ability though and sits for a long time bouncing trying to reach something before she starts going for it, but if she's tired or frustrated then forget about her moving at all- she just sits and cries. Good thing she's such a happy baby almost all the time.

She absolutely loves food- and not pureed food- she loves finger foods.  Her favorites are watermelon, broccoli, strawberries, cucumbers, and any form of bread.

We love this little girl so much- Nathan and Abby are her biggest fans and they just adore her.  I get so many compliments when we're out and about about how wonderful they are to her. 

We sure do love this girl!
