9 months

I really need to catch up. It is so hard to find time to blog these days. Usually when I have nothing to do, I do just that, nothing. I am not one of those people who fill every minute of the day until they go to bed. I need those precious hours, minutes, whatever to just veg. Usually to some questionable tv shows.

Anyways back to the updates. The kids have started school (a few weeks ago)(will post pics soon). Summer has come to an official end, although I don't want to let it go. We had a really great summer and it went by so fast as all our summers usually do. The kids seem to be growing up so fast. Lorelei is starting to crawl now. Asher is finally potty trained (two days now, and counting). Baylee is on her final year of elementary school. Riley has grown over two inches. I think it all happened in the blink of an eye, accept the potty training part.

Lorelei had her 9 month appointment this week. She is now 18 1/2 pounds and 24 1/2 inches long. She has six teeth, four lower and two top that are just poking through. She has become an avid bitter, which isn't to much fun when you are nursing. She screams when anyone outside our family holds her or even sometimes just looks at her. If I stay in her view she is usually ok. She loves to eat. She is my first to actually eat baby food and like it. She is a perfect nurser (accept for the biting). She takes great naps and sleeps about 12 hours at night. She is just beginning to crawl. She can get anywhere by rolling. She is enthralled by her siblings. She loves to be around them and they just can't get enough of her. Life is good.

I have so many more pictures that I will post over the next few days so stay tuned.
