Lana- 9 months

Lana Mae is 9 months old! I feel like she has done a lot of growing and changing and developing in the last month. She has started crawling and clapping. When she hears her name or "yay, Lana" she smiles so big and claps for herself. At the beginning of January, she had strep so I guess we can mark that down as her first sickness. She's had a cough for about a month that hasn't caused any other complications. We are thankful she has avoided any serious illness, but will be glad when she's clear of the junk. 

 We've been to several basketball games in January. She seems to like the gym- but I guess she doesn't have much choice right now. :) She still loves her siblings and has started crawling on them when they're on the floor. They all think this is great fun. 

This is a pretty common one now, trying to pull up on things. No success yet but it won't be long.

Got her! :)

Nom nom nom

Lana continues to be a great sleeper- she's down to a cat nap in the morning and a long afternoon nap. Usually in bed by 7 or 8 and sleeps until 6 or 7. She also has started eating table food and loves it. It's gotten to the point now if the other kids have a snack she starts begging for some too.

I wish this one wasn't blurry, but I love these baby girls.
