Daddy, Roxi, and Mallorie

My three loves all snuggled up! Funny story .....so, Roxi is TERRIFIED of flies.  If one ever gets in the house you know it because Roxi will get so skiddish and hide under the bed or behind the chair.  Well, just so happened the fly went into our bedroom, so she decided she needed to go to Mallorie's room to be safe.  I was putting Mallorie to bed when Roxi creeps in and lays under her crib.  So, Nathan sneaks in and pulls Roxi out....she came out a little bit, but then immediately went back and hid.  He went and got a treat and of course she came running, but then took her treat back under the crib.  Well, I forget that Roxi is under there and I lay Mallorie down and walk out and close the door.  Well, I couldn't find Roxi and so I peeked in Mallorie's room and sure enough SHE'S STILL UNDER THE CRIB!  Crazy dog!  So, I get a treat and she comes out and I shut Mallorie's door.  Problem Solved....nope.  I hop in the shower and when I get out Nathan tells me that Roxi went to Mallorie's door again and pushed it open and thankfully this time he was fast enough to grab her before she could get in there.  OH MY GOSH....Roxi is hilarious. Poor girl has always been a scaredy cat. She is the sweetest thing ever though!

Playtime

 
 
Mallorie and Roxi are becoming the best of friends.  It seems like in the last couple of weeks Mallorie has become fascinated with Roxi.  It is really sweet.  She even waved at her the other day.

Nighttime playing

 
Some of Mallorie's funniest moments come right as we are playing before bed.  She will get so wound up and it is hilarious! These PJ's say, "I don't need to sleep to dream"....if you know my child at all you know these fit her perfectly!! hehe--- Oh how I love her to pieces anyway!

Keeping Enertained

I have finally realized one of the best things to keep Mallorie entertained while I get ready....playing with my make-up bag.  She absolutely loves it!

Kickin' it old school

Mallorie is wearing one of my old gowns in these pictures.  We keep all of these at my Mom's house and so when we are over there and it's close to bedtime, we put her in one of these precious gowns so she will be all ready for bed when we get home. She obviously thought she needed to play some more before bed!

Another Swim & Waving


















 Today Mallorie started really waving when you say hi.  It is the cutest thing in the world.  We also had to go on another swim today.  She seemed to play a little more this time.

Dinner

Mallorie has started sitting in her high chair during meals now while we eat.  She seems to really enjoy getting to have her own food and sit like a big girl.  She pretty much refuses to eat real baby food anymore, so we are moving on to finger foods which she thoroughly enjoys! How in the world can my little baby be big enough to do this now?!?!?

A Fun Day

Tuesday afternoon, Mallorie and I met my Mom at her house after she got off work and we headed to Target.   I just needed to pick up a couple of things and had no intention of buying something fun for myself...but, when you're not looking is when you find the best stuff, right?!  I got new bathroom stuff and I love it.  We were having so much fun shopping around and then Nathan showed up at Target to surprise us when he got off work too.  I love surprises!  Then, Mom, Cindy, Mallorie, and myself all went to eat.  Mallorie sat in a highchair for the first time and ate some crackers and we just had the best time visiting.  She was such a big girl and had a blast!

9 Months Old!

 
My precious Mallorie turned 9 months old yesterday! The past 9 months have been such a wonderful blessing in my life. Mallorie is the sweetest, cutest, and funniest thing ever.

A little bit about my baby girl...

-she has pulled herself up to a sitting position twice now

-yesterday she pulled up on me and Nathan to a standing position

-jabbering up a storm... "Da da da is her favorite thing to say right now."

-loves to "pat pat pat" and clap her little hands together

-has 4 bottom teeth!

-wears 12-18 month clothing, some 9 months still fit, but are getting quite snug

-size 3 diaper

-loves to be in my arms and turn around for a quick hug while she plays...it's so sweet!

- this month I let Mallorie try potatoes from the table and she had a Ritz cracker and loved it!

I can't believe my baby is turning into such a big girl!

Oh how I love my sweet Mallorie Kate!
