9 Months Old update

Little miss Coraline turned 9 months old on the 8th. Where has the time gone, it is crazy how quickly it's flying by! Let's see what is she up to. She started doing a more normal version of a typical crawl on her 9 months birthday, up until now she's been scooting on her butt to get where she wanted to go. She was relatively efficient at the butt scoot, but I guess decided to try the crawling business anyways. It's rather comical because she still won't put both of her knees on the ground, so it's a 1 knee 1 foot hobble/crawl type of thing. You can check out the video on instangram:

Feeding hasn't changed much, she is much more interested these days, and will grab and dive for whatever is within reach (or not) but for the most part still just plays with it. Although the gagging isn't as bad anymore, and she doesn't always shrug when she does swallow something. This kid is so silly. She still breastfeeds. All the time. Night time included. Thank goodness for bed sharing or I'd never sleep!

She now also has 2 teeth! Finally! The downside is she now bites me occasionally. We'll work through it though. I stopped breastfeeding Penni when she started biting, but it was after a year and I wasn't as determined. I'm determined to keep going this time, so we'll get through this phase. Here are her adorable little toofers


In other goings on, I'm pretty proud to say that in 9 months she's never had a bottle, we still don't use the stroller, and she co-sleeps in our bed. Well that's kind of a given since we never bothered with a crib this go around. We do have a toddler bed or the plan was to have her and Penni bed share when she gets older, but considering she is no where near sleeping through the night she'll be snuggling with me for a while still. Perfectly fine with that here.
