Kassidy 9 Months

 I need a photo assistant. Stat. Moving targets are so much harder to shoot. With a camera! Add in a clingy 2 year old and this is what you get. We love our Kassidy. Since we moved the month you turned 9 months old, we haven't been to a doctor to get a weight, height, etc. Once again, sorry little girl. I guess it's true what they say about the kids that come after the first being less documented, but I don't think we have to worry about a lack of pictures at least. 

 You love pulling yourself up on things and finally figured out crawling. It helped when I started putting you in shorter skirts and more pants. Turns out the dresses I was putting you in were hindering your crawling. Oops... kind of...

 You still will not take a bottle. Or any food I give you other than milk for that matter. I try but you are stubborn. 

 you have started dancing! So much fun to watch you shake your head side to side while waving your arms (somewhat like the funky chicken). Lately you've realized you can make arm flatulence noises if you aren't wearing a shirt and get a kick out of that. Hudson does as well, go figure. 

 Kassidy, you are full of character and happiness. These aren't the typical monthly pictures I post, but I had to include them. My funny girl. Note: you wouldn't eat the food I put on the tray, even though I try every day. 

 Oh, I wish these weren't blurry.

You spent your 9th month of life riding across the country from Washington State to Florida and then back to Illinois. You were a trooper and spent a lot of time dancing to music, laughing and eating. As long as I was sitting next you you in the back of the car, and Hudson was on the other side of you, things went smoothly. You are a people person and hate to be alone. I love the snuggles I get from you and the pats on the back as you hug me. 

 You are full of spunk. Whether it's pursed lips when you don't want to eat something, a hand swatting something away or a squawk to tell us your feelings on a matter, you are communicating with us and your personality is big. It's been fun to see it develop so much this past month. 

Kass, you are a joy to have and gift to love. Know that Mom and Dad love you.
