Spoiled Rotten at 9 months

Last week was a very busy week for us.  The first week of the month is always the worst for me at work and then on top of it, we had a holiday!  Elizabeth turned 9 months last week also!  Can you believe it!?!  I am so amazed at how much she has grown and how different she is.  I love this stage (probably more than the baby stage).  She is so loving and really prefers me over anyone else which just makes my little heart melt inside!  When she was a baby, she really didn't have any emotions... it was eat, sleep, poop, eat... you get the cycle.  Now she shows everyone her little attitude and her playfulness.  It still takes her a while to warm up to people at first but once she is comfortable, she will go to just about anybody!  We are working really hard on the talking but this little monkey doesn't want to say anything but "ba ba ba"!  I am so ready for her to say "mommy" or "daddy".  Elizabeth decided to start nine months off with a bang and start walking.  She is still really wobbly but she is getting better everyday!  They work alot with her at school and I think that helps.  Here... take a peek at her walking:

She is into absolutely everything she sees!  I know it will only get worse when she starts walking but that little stinker can disappear fast down the hall or into the kitchen.  One day at my Mom's house she pulled the recycle trash can on top of her then went and pulled a six pack of cokes on top of her that were sitting on the floor.  She walks around and around that ottoman at my mom's.  I think Gram's needs to do a little baby proofing! :)

Elizabeth is spoiled rotten.  She has more clothes than she probably needs and she gets something EVERY TIME we go to Wal-Mart... be it clothes or toys (but mostly toys these days!).  Since this past weekend we were making a trip to Port O'Connor to hang out with Uncle Philip and Aunt Leslie Elizabeth got herself a new car... check her out! She has taken a ride in it everyday since!

Like I mentioned, our little princess turned 9 months old.  It is really and I mean really hard to get a picture of her when she is not strapped down or in someones arms so her photo shoot didn't go that great but she thought I was absolutely hilarious for some reason so at least she is smiling in all her pictures (plus some other randoms at the bottom!)... 

Taking a little break before the photo shoot started... 

 I'm going to get you...

" Look at me Mom!"

 OMG MOM!  HAHAHA!

 "I said WAIT!  Come on..."

walking all over the house in my walker... Mommy loves this so she can get things done without watching me like a hawk!

 Izza and her lovey... so cute. 

 I tried to tell everyone that she gets something new at Wal-Mart every time we go... here is a new bath toy she got last week! :)
