ITS BEEN A LONG TIME!!!

So much has been going on that I just have not had a free second to blog. So Katie Bella is 9 months old now and weighs in at a healthy 20.02lbs!!!!!! She still has a foot fetish (YUCK), and still does not have a tooth in her head. She has been cruising for the last month and is now standing on her own with no help or support, so we know that greatly anticipated first step will occur soon. She is learning to say her little baby words and now says...DaDa, MomMom, Uh-Oh, bye bye, Hey and BaBa. She blurted out "what dat" the other day, but I am guessing it was jibber jabber because she has not repeated that since. She is finally putting herself to sleep in her own bed, which we are so very proud of!!!! She interacts with everyone and I love love love her little personality. She is quite a ball of fire and has one hell of a temper. If you dare try to take something from her she pulls her hand away and gives you a look of "I dare you". However, if you can successfully remove the item that she should not have from her hand then she will throw herself into panic mode and cry and kick her little chunky legs (its actually pretty cute). When she is excited she jumps up and down and pants like a dog, with her tongue stuck out. It is hilarious. I am not quite sure where she learned this behavior from, but it is good entertainment. She also gives kisses - not the kind you want though! She opens her mouth as wide as possible and then comes the tongue that licks you until you can take no more. Her eyes are still blue and her hair is still a blond/brunette/red mixture and is so long that it makes her look older than she really is. Her hair is actually longer than shoulder length. I will post some pictures later this week! LOVE YOU ALL!
