9 Months



 Our sweet little baby is getting bigger and bigger every day. Natalie hit a few milestones this month- all within the same two days. She figured out how to clap one evening just as I was getting everyone to bed (that delayed bedtime by about 20 minutes as everyone wanted to clap with her) and the next morning she figured out how to army crawl. The kids spent that whole day placing desirable items near her then pulling them just out of reach to get her to crawl after them. Natalie is still just about as delightful as can be- smiling and babbling. She has started to develop some stranger danger and shies away when anyone outside of our immediate family tries to take her from mom. Maybe I'm imagining it, but it seems like Natalie, more than any of our other kids at this age, follows daddy around with her eyes and tries to get his attention all the time. If he is standing near me while I'm holding her, she leans to him trying to get him to pick her up.
As you can tell, Natalie's hair is getting thicker and longer, but is a bit unruly- so cute. I got one picture of her when she first woke up, but the others didn't turn out well so I tried later in the day.
