Cecilia and Jimmy

Yesterday was just one of those days that didn't go as planned...but you just gotta roll with it, right? Cecilia was 9 months on the 12th and I have been meaning to get her picture all week. Yesterday was the day and I wanted to get a pic in my favorite outfit for her. Unfortunately, after she woke up from her nap she was soaked...so much for the outfit and that is why there is a little naked baby below!

What a month it has been for our sweet Cecilia. She is full blown crawling, pulling up on everything and even walking around furniture. She is starting to imitate what we do so if we clap she will clap and if we bat our eyes she will bat hers. She has 3 teeth with a fourth coming soon (two bottom, one top) and we call her our little "snaggle-tooth." She is starting to eat more table food and so far likes eggs, chicken, strawberries, bananas, cheerios, crackers, watermelon, peas just to name a few.

Cecilia-9 months





Jimmy 9 months (August 2007)



Jimmy had his first camp this week. It was a preschool camp at our church and he loved it! His camp teacher was the same teacher he had for preschool last year so he was a little confused as to why the rest of his buddies were not there. He kept saying "but there is only one Jimmy." He eats PB&J and bagels and cream cheese like they are going out of style. He still loves orange juice and of course anything sweet! He refers to things by their shapes sometimes. He likes "rectangle chocolates" (3 Musketeers) and "hexagon" crackers (Wheat Thins). He is fascinated with his shadow and always points it out when he sees it and likes to make shadow puppets on the wall in his room before bedtime. He continues to take swim lessons and keeps improving. He is so loving and sweet to his baby sister but doesn't like it when she plays with his toys. We always tell him to give her something else to play with and he finds one of her "baby" toys. He is keenly aware of what is for baby and what is for big boys and he clearly is a BIG BOY!

He is also big into making funny faces. He was dancing around and sticking his tongue out and wanted me to take a picture and then he always says "let me see." He will never know about having to take pictures, send the film off to be developed and then anxiously waiting for the pictures to arrive!
