She's a big girl now

*sniff sniff*
My baby girl is almost 9 months old and finally sitting up for extended periods of time unassisted. Man, oh man, I do not want her to be growing so fast! She adores sitting up on her own; I honestly swear she is proud of herself. She gets her little arms and legs a kicking, and starts doing her excited growl/yell and talking to us. Ugg, I want to eat this child up, I love her so. If she happens to tumble over, she'll sit and fuss until you prop her back up, where she will then start kicking and blabbing away again!

She blends in with her blanket, no?

I swear, we only give her milk- no alcohol for the "drunk" look
Pretty girl

I adore this tiny little back. This tiny little body. This perfect little bum hiding under the diaper - all topped off with her Soupy huge head. Hee hee.

Ahoy, Matey!

Well, hi! She has the most gorgeous little side-grin, that makes it look as though she is contemplating something.

And, notice how HER left eye (if you are looking, it's her right) seems smaller/droopier than the other one? That eye is always getting watery when she gets tired or doesn't feel good. Is this typical?

AND: I love that this child is developing a BUDDHA belly! Just like sissy!
