Nine Months In the Belly, Nine Months Out

I feel slightly ill at the discovery that I never posted about month eight. Where did the last two months go? Where have I been? What was my baby like a month ago?  Next post will be "month eight"

Well, onward. Autumn is now 9 months! (almost 10 as I write this, but just go with me).  She has started to eat actual food. We started with bananas, moved to sweet potatoes, a little squash, and these awesome organic/gluten free sweet potatoe puffs.

It is starting to come back to me why I haven't been writing. We moved July 1st. Went 1 week with no hot water, one week with no stove,  2 weeks with no washer/dryer, 2 weeks with no shower, and we are just putting in counter tops today (which is actually August 11th, not July 20 th like I want you all to believe).

So back to nine months. Autumn's top left tooth broke through, her top right has recently made its appearance. She sits so easily, crawls like a champ, has started to wave on cue, "hi everybody!" She is smiley and easy going, unless it is bedtime. The neighborhood loves her. Especially next door neighbor John. Rowan's girlfriends want to come over to play with Autumn and it makes Rowan a little nuts.

I am not ready for her to stop being my snuggle bug little babe!

Nine days until10 months. We'll see what new tricks she comes up with!
