9 months and growing, growing, growing

Miss Hailey has just turned 9 months which is still almost impossible to believe! I remember those early colicky nights and now we have the most happy, smiley, talkative baby ever!


Hailey is pulling up and scooting along furniture and crawling like a champ. We keep thinking that she will be walking by Christmas which would be so fun! She gets around so quickly. Yesterday I was changing A & P's diapers in a room across the house from Hailey. In just a minute or two, Hailey had made it all the way across the house to where we were. She just sped right in, smiling with every step.


She is also going to sleep in the same room as her sister, at the same time! This makes for a very happy mommy who has all her munchkins in bed by eight! She did a little crying (just a teeny bit) but now knows exactly what she is supposed to do. I actually turned the girls cribs so they can see each other, and they seem to love waking up together.


Hailey is starting to try and grab her brother and sister's toys. Avery is a bit nicer about it,but, Pete, whew . . . he really doesn't like it! He likes to tell her, "NO, Hawee, NO!" But, he also loves her alot, gives her kisses and shares (sometimes!) with her!
