Janie is Nine Months!

Janie's friend, Will Burriss and his mommy and daddy gave Jane this awesome toy where she can stand and play at all 360 degrees. When I first brought it home, she wasn't feeling well, but couldn't stop playing with it long enough to notice. She wouldn't even look up long enough to take a picture. She loves it - thanks, Amy and Brandon!

Janie has been sick this whole week, so it was hard to get a smile out of her. This one is about the best she could do. Poor, sweet baby.

Her hair is filling in so nicely. It is so soft, shiny, wavy, and sweet.


A bed-head moment for Janie.

One of Janie's favorite hobbies... pulling items off of the bookshelf. She's very methodical. She finds her Baby Einstein videos first and then it's anything and everything.

What a Couple of Weeks!

Janie turned 8 mos., learned to pull herself up on things, and has learned to crawl all in the last couple of weeks. She's also sleeping through the night (usually) and is sweet as can be. Her hair has turned curly at the ends (didn't see that one coming), and she has a new goofy grin. I've decided to stay home with her next year, and we're loving life!

Janie loves to sit on her changing table window area and look outside.
Bows aren't usually her thing, but with all the hair she's got now, it's fun to try them out.

Her hair was so bone-straight at birth that we're surprised to see it start to curl up at the ends. She's so beautiful.
Jane loves the view from her nursery window.
This is one of her new grins. We think it has to do with her teething. Super-cute!
Her eyes seem to get bigger and brighter every day. When she's sleepy, as she is here, she can stare holes through you.


Monster baby!!!!!
Pulling things off shelves is a new pastime now that she can pull up.



I know it's kind of dark, but here is one of her early crawling attempts (to her Daddy, of course)
