fun update

Addy is growing up so fast it makes me so sad :( that she isn't going to be a baby soon.  We took her to her 9month check up and she now weighs 22lbs and is 29inches tall. she is pretty high on the growth charts for her age.  Were not to sure where she gets it from since Bryce and I are both short.were guessing it comes from my side though since my sister is super tall.
Addy's 8th tooth just popped through which I'm so happy about. because now she is sleeping through the night again. I seriously think teething is one of the worst things ever invented so hopefully we get a break for a little bit she has been getting two teeth every month since she was five months old. Although she does look so stinking cute with her mouth full of teeth.
When we took Addy to her pediatrician (who i love by the way Dr. Wynn is the greatest!) i was asking him if she should be crawling by now and he told us how most babies are crawling by nine months and some a little later and the some babies never crawl and that perfectly fine to.  So we were thinking that she was just going to skip the crawling stage because she has been pulling her self up to stand and cruising along the furniture. well a week after her appointment she started crawling on her hands and knees.  It is so cute to watch her and she can get going pretty fast when she wants to get some where. She sure gives me a run for my money though.  I turn my head for one second and the next thing i know she is getting in the dog food or pulling things out of a drawer or trying to sneak into another room. So its time we pull out the baby gates. luckily we already have some that we use to keep the dogs out of rooms. 
Yesterday was a big mile stone for her too.  She learned how to go up the stairs by her self. It was so cute, her cousins had just gotten home from school and she heard them upstairs. She absolutely loves playing with them, I guess she couldn't wait for me to take her up so she decided she would do it her self and up the stairs she went. Now i need to teach her how to teach her how to go down the stairs so she doesn't hurt her self.
I love all of the new skills that she is learning everyday and i get so proud of her when she learns something new and I love seeing how excited she gets when she leans something new.  Being a mom is so fun and I love every minuet of it!
