9 months

Jump to Comments

Okay so I am a few days early but essentially my little kiddo is 9 months old and more and more like a little human every moment. There is a lot going on… Since last week:

1. We met the “other parent” She is very nice. I feel blessed that she is like us in almost every way. We have no plans to get together again but I am sure we will, because we genuinely liked her. We agreed to work together as two families to manage the information. We also agreed that the “sister” word was not one we embraced. It was 4 hours of nice conversation.  The girls are only 10 months apart and were infatuated with each other. 
2. LJ busted through 3 teeth…and ran a fever..that kept going. Yep, another UTI. Landed us in the emergency room on Sunday. It was a miserable horrible yucky experience. I cried, Amber cried. Lily got bruises from feeble attempt to take blood. It really was horrendous and disappointing because we are so so close to surgery now…  there is virtually no way around it…  just have to continue to keep her healthy until she hits 1 year. 
3. Just today she started feeling better… and resumed cruising around the living room… thats right she is an awkward jumbly crawler but she pulls up like a champ and cruises around her crib, the furniture – basically anywhere. She busts out this fantastic smile while standing and can stand for 30-45 minutes before she sits herself down. 

So, somewhere along the way my smidge became a 20 lb toddler like human with wants and needs and the growing ability to communicate them. I barely know what to do with her and I just can’t wait for the surprises that tomorrow will bring.
