9 month Elly

 Here is our not so big 9 month old Elly. She weighs 16.3 lbs and is 26 inches tall. So in short (hee hee) she is a very petite little girl. Her height is in the 3rd percentile and her weight is in the 17th. We sure do love our little Elly bug! Her teeth are so cute...and sharp as everyone can attest to that. She also likes to use her fingernails on our faces. She loves her dad the most and I'm ok with that. She gets so excited when he comes home and prefers to be with him.
 As you can tell, she is one happy girl, when she isn't she only cries a little, but she screams and yells to let you know that she isn't happy. She's got a temper!
 We got the crib up for her and she absolutely LOVES to be in it. When I first put her in it she rolled from one end to the other giggling the whole way. What a goof!
 She likes to eat anything on the ground...bark, grass, rocks, and even sometimes dirty diapers if she can get to them. She has learned to tip the garbage can over to get to them...no worries, she hasn't been very successful with that. It's the effort that counts.
 I love that she is so photogenic and I can get really good pictures of her any day, and pretty much anytime. She must know that makes me happy :)
 If she doesn't have her binky, she's chewing on her fingers, mostly her thumb on the side, because her 3rd tooth has broken through...it's one of her eye teeth. Not the two front teeth. So now she has a fang.
 She has discovered all kinds of tastes this month...Sweet and sour mostly. Mustard was probably my favorite face.
Her facial expressions crack me up. Enough said...
