Happy 9 months baby girl!

Another month has passed (no fair that Feb is so short!), and Lyla continues to amaze me every single day.  Today we share our 'birthdays', mine is my real one, 31...sounds pretty anticlimatic compared to last years 3.0.  We did have a really nice day. The weather was amazing, and my parents are here visiting.  We had a really nice dinner and some DQ ice cream cake..mmmm!

We are heading to the Dr. on Tuesday for the 9 month check up so we'll get all the stats, but here is the fun stuff.

1. Waving is the most fun thing EVER! lol  She waves all day long, no matter what is going on, it is an occasion for waving!
2. Pulling up and standing on everything, standing alone for a while on her own, but loves crawling the most.  Also LOVES the stairs!
3. Eating pretty much anything we put in front of her.  Still doing purees most of the time, but she loves her finger food, and wants just a taste of whatever we are eating too.
4. Sleeping pretty well, probably 3 nights a week she sleeps straight through, and the other nights she wakes up for a quick snack at some point.  Since I'm still nursing it's not a big deal, only takes about 15 minutes and she's sound asleep before I put her back in the crib. I'm pretty sure she doesn't really need it, but it doesn't bother me, and sometimes I like the extra cuddle time anyway.

My countdown is down to about 2 months until I go back to work.  We are busy all the time so I'm trying to really enjoy the days that I am at home with her through the day.  Just watching her playing and discovering how different toys work, and what her little body is capable of is endless fun!
