Our Weekend

We had a fun weekend as a family!

Friday night, we went to Friday's for dinner.  Caylee got to sit in a highchair after she woke up from her nap and she sampled a few foods from my meal.

Connor requested mac & cheese and oranges for dinner.

We went to Walmart for groceries and Caylee did great in the shopping cart!
On Saturday morning, the kids did some tummy time together and Connor tried to show Caylee how to crawl.

She got up on her hands and knees for the first time!  She's definitely scooting backwards and rocking now, but she's not quite moving.

I took her for spring/9 month photos in her pretty party dress and new shiny pink shoes (pics coming soon!) and she did great!  She wore the dress when we got home, but I took off all the accessories.

After nap time, we promised Connor we could go outside and try out his green truck that he got for Christmas.

We also did a little t-ball practice since classes are starting up soon.  He's hitting pretty well, but we really need to work on catching.

He's so sweet with her :)  He loves to put this necklace on her and I when he finds it in his toy box.

That old calculator comes in really handy as an extra "phone" when Connor wants to call someone.  He called Grammy and asked her how her day was.


In honor of March Madness, I took out the baby basketball set and we showed Caylee how to use it.  This has now become Connor's favorite toy again.  Funny how the baby toys come back and he loves them all over again!

Mommy & Me...

We had a really long wait at the pediatrician the other day, so I kept us busy by taking selfies after Caylee woke up from her nap.  To my surprise, my usual horrible selfies turned into some really gorgeous photos!







Just to show off the eyelashes and cute new shirt...


And finally in the exam room!

9 months!

Weight: 16 lbs (10-25%)
Height: 26.75" (10-25%)
Head: 42.75 cm (25%)

She's .25" shorter and weighs 10 oz. more than Connor was at the same age.  They're really catching up to each other in terms of size at this point.


She's finally healthy!  Her 9 month appointment at the pediatrician went great and she's doing well!
• Started getting up on her hands and knees a couple days ago
• Enjoying tummy time more and starting to scoot backwards
• Loves to stand with help
• No attempt to stand or pull up, but that's just fine :)
• Loves playing with her brother and he's really enjoying it too
• Feeds herself very well and eats any food we give her
• Tried all kinds of new foods such as tuna, black beans, turkey, avocado, mushrooms, etc
• Still wearing 6 month clothes (not much change in clothes sizing)
• Working on transitioning to no swaddle at night and sleeping in her crib
• Still only says "Dada" consistently, but has started some other random sounds
• Eating at the table with her friends at daycare like a big girl
• Has just enough hair on the top to wear a little bow!
