You've learned some new things these last few weeks. You've learned to clap, your newest and favorite trick right now, and you've learned to high-five. You've learned to wave but you get it confused with clapping sometimes. You've learned to stand, but not walk, not yet. You've also learned to play peek-a-boo with us. You hide yourself behind anything, a bit of cloth, your bib, a towel...then we say, "Peek-a-boo Daisy!" Then you reward us by pulling down whatever was covering your face and giving us a great big smile and a squeal. This is one of mommy's favorite games with you.
We also found out that you enjoy being held and swung upside down. This makes you laugh. While you're a very happy baby, you don't laugh very often. Mostly squeal and smile at us. To get a real laugh, we have to do something really silly. Like put an e-collar on Lucy's head. This made you laugh right away.
We took you to your first concert, by mistake. We went to Pluto's in Davis after swim class last Wednesday and Band-Uh came through and did their own flash mob type thing. We have a video.
Let's see, you had your 9 month appointment today. You weigh 16 pounds, 5 ounces (11th percentile) and are 27 1/4 inches (40th percentile) in length. You had to get a flu shot and, as always, you yelled. But you got over it pretty quickly. The nurse started playing peek-a-boo with you and that made you happy. The doctor says you're doing great! This weekend you have a play date with three other babies from our mommy group. You've seen Chandler and Sarah before but Ry is a new one. They'll be fabulous, they always are! I'll take your 9 month pictures this weekend I think. Right now you're napping and I wonder if you're actually going to wake before your actual bed time at 7:30.
Oh yes, you have 5 teeth now by the way.
Picture catch up!

Gotta teach this girl right!
Always determined to get to me. This was August 15th
If you can't have me, the dog will do. Honey doesn't look thrilled with this idea though.
8 Month pictures. September 2, 2012 - On our way to the beach!
She loves her daddy!
Sometimes she just puts up with me :P
First day at the beach! It was chilly even though it's the middle of summer!
And we had to get a picture on your very own swing set. Too small or not!
Until next time baby girl!
