Nick and Amy plus TWO!: Olivia is 9 months old!!!

It is so hard to believe my baby girl is 9 months old. Another month has come and gone! This year is just flying by! Every day brings something new with Olivia. She is such a joy to us and is so much fun!!

Here is my sweet baby girl at 9 months old!!

I just love this baby girl to pieces!! I am so glad to be able to stay at home with my babies each and every day because they are growing way too fast!

Here is what Miss Olivia has been up to this past month!

*She is still army crawling. I think she has realized that she can get around that way and she might never get on those knees! She is so fast. She gets on her knees and rocks back and forth but then she gets on her belly and takes off!

*I believe she will walk before her first birthday. I may be wrong but I would be surprised if she didn't. She thinks she is bigger than she is and wants to get up and go so we will see when she starts walking.

* She had started shrugging her shoulders and it is the cutest thing ever!

*She is such a loving and friendly baby and will go to just about anyone.

*She loves to give kisses.

*She started really clapping her hands on June 24 at 9 months and 4 days.

*She is so sweet and has such a personality. She is usually always happy! She loves to laugh and loves to be tickled!

*She may be sweet but she definitely can get mad if she can't do something. I tell you that Brayden and Olivia are like night and day. When Brayden was little I would steer Brayden in the other direction when he was headed to something he shouldn't and if I do it to Olivia she gets frustrated because she wanted to get to it so bad. LOL. I tell you this little girl will be into everything! I never had to worry about Brayden pulling off things off the Christmas tree or getting into cabinets. This girl will have my tree undecorated as fast I can decorate it I am sure! LOL She is so active!

*She started waving bye bye June 27th at 9 months and 1 week. It is so sweet to watch her. Brayden always waved the correct way and she does it backward and with both hands.

*She got in her baby pool for the first time this month! She loves the water!

*She is sleeping all night long, unless she is teething. Those teeth keep her restless! She takes really good naps and does not fight me at all to take a nap or go to sleep at night. I have been blessed with two great sleepers!

*Speaking of teeth, she still only has two teeth. Brayden had 7 when he was her age. :)

*I finally gave her Gerber puffs. I know they melt but I was still worried about giving them to her with only her two teeth. Call me crazy. She did so well with them and hardly had any left over in her seat. She loved them!

*She loves to play in her crib. And her brother loves to go and get sissy every time he hears her wake up from her nap. He is constantly asking about her when she is asleep. He is so sweet!

This is how I find her when I go in and get her when she wakes up.
