9 months

Taylor is really showing her sweet and vibrant personality more and more every day. We celebrated her first Christmas and loved watching her priceless faces at each new present. Peek-a-boo has always been a favorite game, but loves playing the crawling version that daddy created and has learned to hold the blanket up by herself to play. It's always an adventure to see how I will find her in the morning or after naps since she flips and flops all during the night. She has even taken after mommy in the drooling category! Since Taylor has two teeth now, it was time to start good dental hygene by brushing those teeth. It starts off by me brushing her teeth and bottom gums(and attempts at the top gums) and then Taylor takes over to finish up.





















Taylor still loves cats and finds Sadie(our dog) more entertaining everyday. We are working on how to pet animals without hurting them. Another thing we are working on in 'No'. Taylor has a few things that are no-no's and she will continuously check them out. She either finds it funny when I tell her no or she will turn the waterworks on faster than could be. She tends to examine her toys and try to figure how they work.

















Here are some of Taylor's other adventures:
  • Started saying Mama!!!
  • Mastered the sippy cup with handles
  • Tried tortillas, bananas, pineapple, corn, bread, avocado, apple, ham, pork loin, and cheese in non-pureed form
  • Will take a few steps while holding on to your fingers, but prefers to crawl. She is super speed demon on all fours!
  • Panicked Mom by eating dirt from one of the potted indoor plants
  • Spent her first overnight with Nana in Fort Worth(while we were at the Tech bowl game)
  • Likes to push toys across rooms
  • Weighed 19.75 lbs and was 28 inches long when we went to the doctor.
Take her monthly picture each month has truly become an adventure! Here are the photos from take one:





















Taylor decided sitting in the chair was not fun and she wanted to go unstack the clothes in her closet instead. So I waited until the next day and tried again. I had much better success at getting Taylor to look at the camera, but staying in the chair was still not successful.

























She was being quite a ham and I just love this last picture I caught!


If you notice, Taylor finally has enough hair to wear a bow without the headband! Taylor's collection of bows has grown quite a bit over the past 10 months.(I started before she was born)


Stay tuned because I have a great video and picture ready for Taylor Tuesday!
