Sadie 0, Cupcake 1

Here is Sadie's first attempt at feeding herself something bigger than bite size... a carrot cake mini cupcake.  Lesson for Mom- leave the frosting off the ones you're going to feed to the baby!

What a mess, but she loved it!

Standing!

Sadie turned 9 months old last week!

She's growing up so fast!  She was 20.5 pounds on our scale, so she's getting heavier, but she doesn't seem to be getting much taller.  We'll see how long she is next week when we go to the doctor for her check up. 

We celebrated father's day last weekend.  Sadie loves her daddy!

 This one looks like she's giving him a kiss, but she's really just trying to get the nuk out of his mouth. :)  She hasn't learned kisses yet, but she likes to try to suck on your face, so she's getting closer!

Then on Tuesday she stood!  She had been starting to for just a few seconds and then plopping down right away, but Kevin was on vacation this week, so they practiced a lot.  When I got home from work she showed me what she learned!

She can even get herself up to a standing position from sitting on the floor now.  I tried to catch her doing it, but she was more interested in the camera!
