Crawling for Cats and Cell phones! :)

Trying to get to Maggie...we think this is going to be "her cat"...Maggie is so good to her and will let Mallory pet her...we are working on "gentle touch"...
Mallory's been trying to get my cell phone when I'm talking and she gets frustrated when she can't have it...so MiMi found one of her old ones...now Mallory is part of the "cell phone nation" and can chew til her hearts content on hers! :)

It's hard to believe that Mallory is 9 and a half months old! People couldn't believe she was crawling to get things at church and sipping from a sippy cup. She is very methodical (like her dad) and doesn't crawl all the way across the floor yet...but crawls, then sits, then crawls...to get to where she wants to go...) She loves real food now too and always wants what we are having...so we have been letting her...everything, but honey and peanuts are fair game (green light from the Dr.)...we hope she will learn to like many foods!

At her 9 month appointment she weighed in exactly 3 lbs heavier than at 6 months...17 lbs and 3 oz and was still in the 20%tile for weigh, but the Dr. was very happy with that. She jumped 25 points in height to be in the 75%tile now for height! We were so happy with her check up and can't wait to see how she's changed when we go back at a year!

Mallory is so cute and smart! Us old folks used to say, "the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree"
Here's the proof.
Saw the picture of pepere with all his grandkids. He is SO proud, and rightly so. Can't believe they are all getting so big and beautiful. Time flies!!
