While Benjamin and I were at bible study, Eva was being entertained in a room FULL of toys just by her sister, brother, and a water bottle and Dave said they had so much fun!
Dave shouldn't be trusted with the heating pad.....he fell asleep on it with no shirt on!
Some beautiful crawling pictures of sweet Eva. She loves her new found skills!
Eva played for awhile in her "birthday suit" on her 9 month birthday and was so happy, I had to snap some pictures. It's a good thing I did, because she wasn't feeling cooperative when I tried to get her monthly pictures. She loves this little comb!
Hi!
She spends some time every day pulling up on the rocking chair. She is really into this chair!
Anna came and tried to help with Eva's month picture and played peek-a-boo to get some smiles for me.
She had another wonderful check-up and is growing great. She was 19 1/2 pounds (60th percentile) and almost 29 inches (95th percentile).
At nine months little Evie is getting more and more personality. She is crawling with more skill every day. She pulls up to her knees like in the above picture and has even gotten to her feet a few times. Her eyes seem to be getting brighter and brighter. Still no teeth. Sleeping great at night and so-so for naps (only two short ones usually). Is starting to be bored with her baby toys and wants to explore what else the world has to offer. Loves, loves Mum-mums (little baby wafers) and will shake with excitement and anticipation when she sees the package. Loves to clap with you and talk/squeal back and forth with someone. Dances all the time. Doesn't miss anything....I love how she will look around whatever is blocking her view to see what's going on. Has developed a serious case of "the moms" and won't let anyone hold her if she can see me...which can make the days challenging but is a HUGE blessing to be loved so fiercely by such a sweet pea!
The kids have developed a love (or an obsession in Collin's case) of Peter Rabbit. There is a new show on tv and we have a collection of Beatrix Potter's books that we've been reading. To mix it up a little, Benjamin and I started a unit study on it and are creating a lap book of all that we learn/activities we do about Peter Rabbit/Beatrix Potter. He really likes it! Here he is working with unifex cubes to plan a new garden for Mr. McGregor since Peter keeps eating all of his vegetables He even wrote an awesome apology letter for Peter and explained his new garden.
