I love to kiss these sweet cheeks.

Flannery is such a happy baby, and loves to laugh. She is always smiling! The picture where she is wearing red was such a funny day. She was holding on to the bar stool, and she stood there and laughed forever!! When she wanted to move she realized that she was sorta "trapped" and didn't like it at all. She had to have a little help. She normally just drops to her bottom, but she didn't this time. She was trying to climb over the bars, but they were too high for her little self.

9 months old.

This was taken the day she turned nine months old. Nikki came over to do my hair, and while it was processing we took her out to play in the grass. It was her first time! It was such a beautiful day. She was so cute! She felt it, and of course tried to put it in her mouth! Since then we have taken her several times, and she even rolled down the yard a bit once. She was trying to crawl, and since there is a small incline rolling ensued!

They love each other so much!

They always have a great time together. I have posted other pictures like this, but this one had to be shown to the world. I really like Flannery's outfit in this photo too!

Laughing at Ella

A couple of weeks ago Flannery and I went to visit Baby Asher and Jen. We had a lovely time! When we got there Flannery immediately noticed Ella out on the patio and went straight to the window. She laughed so much at her that I had to capture it on video. Hope you enjoy!

I really enjoy standing up anywhere I get the chance...

Flannery really likes to stand up now. She has so much fun exploring and checking things out. She LOVES to get in the fridge and feel the cold items. She is also figuring out how to open cabinets. Time to get the baby-proofing items!! I held her arms yesterday as she walked a few steps and she thought she was really doing something special. It was so cute!

She will be having her 9 month well-baby visit next week. I can't believe she will be 9 months old this coming Saturday! She has 8 teeth, and loves to eat new foods. She will not eat baby food though. She does not like it. She'd rather have what we are eating!!

Here are a few photos to show you her standing ability! :)

Video time!!
