Our little munchkin is nine months-old today! We went to her nine month check-up at the pediatrician's office this morning and here are her stats: 17 lbs 10 oz (50th percentile) & 29 inches (95th percentile) which means she takes after her daddy with her long, skinny self. 
She absolutely loves to play with Nicholas and he really likes her to play with him, too. He doesn't complain even when she accidentally pushes her palm on his face or pulls his hair too hard. Most of the time she is very gentle and kind to him and they laugh a lot. Nicholas also doesn't mind sharing with her, unless she takes he favorite toy, then he demands to get it back.
She has finally replaced the army crawl with the "regular" crawl (crawling on her hands and knees) and she gets faster and faster every day. She had also started putting absolutely EVERYTHING into her mouth, even the smallest things that I can barely see. So I have taken to vacuuming at least once a day to be sure the floors are as clean as possible. 
She is quite a ham and makes us all laugh a lot. She makes silly faces and sounds and squeals when she is excited or happy. She has yet to cut any teeth but I am sure she will get some in the next couple months. She has started eating some table food: cheerios, rice, beans, banana, and avocado are a few of her favorites.
Tonight when Jeff took her out of her Jolly Jumper she somehow did a headstand and she loved it! Jeff stood next to her as I quickly snapped this photo. 
She just adores her daddy and they spent time each evening cuddling together before Ella goes to bed. Jeff got moved to the day shift and it has been so wonderful to have family time when he gets home in the afternoon. 
Ella Roo, you are the sweetest baby girl! You have brought so much joy to our family. These past nine months have zoomed by and we have cherished every moment with you.
Love you to the moon & back!!!
