Evie is 9 months!

Wow, I can't believe my baby is 9 months old already. Despite the below picture (she discovered the 9 month sticker I put on her dress and didn't like it that I wouldn't let her touch it), she is quite a happy, easy going little girl. She smiles and laughs a ton, especially at Kylie. We had to reschedule her dr appt and unfortunately won't go for another month, but on our home scale, she's weighing about 18 lbs. She has loved all the solids we've given her and have recently been introducing lots of finger foods- peas, strawberries, cheese, bread, and chicken. She's not crawling but is showing gains every day. She's quite adept at rolling to get where she wants to go and is almost doing an army crawl. She's a good sleeper- 2 long naps during the day and 11-12 hours at night. She's playing/ interacting more and more with Kylie and she can say mama and I'm pretty sure she knows it's me. We love you to pieces Sissy Pants.

"Kylie, stop putting my bowl on my head, it's not a hat silly."

She still loves the ergo. Photo credit: Ky

Evie's physical therapist said she wasn't allowed to go in the jumper til she's crawling but she's almost there and I really needed to cook dinner so I let her play in it for a while today- she LOVED it!

Here's how she sleeps most days now- silly girl, hope she doesn't get it stuck.

Grandma and Ya Ya

My mom and her cousin Jill from Fayeteville, AR did a road trip to So Cal last weekend to come visit us. We had so much fun with them! Jill had never met our girls and Kylie adored her. Evie is going through a phase where she only wants mommy but I'm sure she'll love Jill too next time she meets her:)

We enjoyed.....

walking the strand- Ky got spoiled with a stop for a cookie from Martha's,

shopping,

and concert in the park.

Sweatshirt triplets

 Jill was very generous in sharing her iphone and kindle with Kylie. She has a ton of kid apps because her gradchildren (twins Jake and Gracie) are the same age as Ky- hopefully we'll all get together soon...maybe a Disney Cruise is in our future...
 Thanks so much for coming!
