10 MONTHS

Daddy and Leah reading a book before bed.

This has to be my most favorite pic. Leah started walking about a week after her 9 month birthday.

She is pretty darn good at it now. She has been teething pretty bad the last week her top left tooth is coming in. Poor girl had it bad when it was in the 90's this past week. She went to her first wedding yesterday. I wish I could have got more pictures then three. But since Jason was a grooms men I was all by myself trying to keep her under control. She wanted to be everywhere. Good thing Auntie Sam was there for a little bit to hang out with her to give me a break. Leah is going through a stage where she doesn't want me to leave her. Not even if daddy is the one to watch her. Leah has learned so much the last month is crazy for me to think how big she is getting. She crawls under things, in the bathroom cabinet that is not locked to get to the TP, she also unrolls the TP. crawls onto or into whatever she can. We have been letting her go outside and walk around she loves to play in the dirt, rocks, grass.

I leave you with Leah's adorable dress for Joseph and Ashley's Wedding.

Everyone loved it. She looks so cute!!

Walking

Leah has been taking steps for some time now. Everyday she gets better at it. Its hard her in the action. But its the cutest thing she gets her hands in the air big smile on her face and goes for it. Sometimes when she is done she claps her hands. Here is a quick video of her. Will post a better one if I ever get one.

9 month stats

                                           Leah Rachel Briggs
                            18.8 Lbs
                          27 Inches
Everything went very well. She is gowning great and I am more then excited to start her on different foods. There are a faw things that we are going to be waiting on until after her first birthday. She has a small hernia in her belly button but its not bad and should change over time its more a cosmedic surgery.The Dr. said its normal and cause from it not closing all the way so there is a air pocket. On a good note.
           Leah took two steps yesterday. I was so excited. They were not very stable steps. I will try and get a video or pic but when she see the camera thats all she wants.
                                  

9 Months

Happy 9 months old Leah!!

So I don't even know where to start we have had such a eventful month. She is growning up so fast. Above is my new favorite for the month. Jason just got done running when Leah was getting sleepy and wanted to be with daddy so they watched hunting while I cooked dinner.

This one is my next favorite she doesn't fall asleep in my lap anymore but this one time last Saturday she was so tried that she did. Doesn't she look so cute and peaceful.

She has become the little water bug. Ever since she went swimming in the BIG pool of grandma and grandpa Meyer's. She will play forever in water. If you look close you can see her cute teeth. Count them one and two.

She is ready to go shooting DADDY!!!

Jason has been wanting to take her shooting since she was born asking me all the time when can I take her with me. When she gets bigger.

She can STAND!!! and has been doing alot of lately. She has taking a half of step before falling into a full on fast crawl. I am sure it's only a matter of time before we have a walker on our hands. And before we know it she is going to be a year old with how fast time is flying.

Who doesn't think a baby bum is the cutest.

(she is going to hate me when she gets older)

She is quit the talker. Saying DaDa, MaMa (sounds more like Nana) But I know she is saying MAMA!!

BaBa and much more cute noises.

She has her 9 month check up tomorrow morning I will post stats then. Jason and I have a bet going. Jason thinks she is 20lbs and I think 19lbs and almost 30ins.

She is getting so BIG.

Finally Summer is here

On our first real Hot Summer day this year Leah and I spent the afternoon at Grandma and Grandpa's house in the pool. Leah got to swim for her very first time and she loved it. She stayed in the pool for over an hour and wanted back in after taking her out. I think she is going to be a little mermaid. Need to get her in swimming lessons soon.

Where did Auntie Sam go!!!

Chillin in her float.

She was very relaxed playing with her sand toys.

Hope everyone is staying nice and cool.

Enjoy that SUN SHINE!!!

Done with the deck

Well almost but for the most part it is done. Jason still has a little more work to do like the facing and the under stuff I can't remember what is it called but it goes around the bottom to keep things and people out from under the deck and benches around the sides. Saturday while Jason was gone I got all the chairs put together and when Jason got home I need his brain to help me put the table together the darn bolts didn't want to go in right so he got new different ones and they worked. He is so SMART I dont know what I would do without him around. That evening we enjoyed our deck and Leah enjoyed crawling around and playing.

Thats Jason's dad Kevin. He was helping by just sitting there.

Make a long story short Jason does all the work.

 

Got home from Zumba wednesday night to a almost done with the top and they finished it up by 9pm that night.

Jason finished the steps yesterday.

Oh how I love my new deck and my wonderful husband who built it.

Jason you did a great job. I love you!!!

Still needs work around the area that will come next yr with a concrete patio with firepit.

8 Months old

Leah turned 8 months old last tuesday the 22nd. I am still having problems with my laptop and so that is way I am posting late. Leah got her first tooth the day after her 8th month birthday.It is the front bottom left. I didn't notice it until she was screaming when I woke her up taking her out of the car. I was so excited I could not wait to tell Jason. I feel bad for her it looks like the one right next to it is also coming in. She does seem to be in a better mood. Well enought with the tooth. Leah favorite things to do.

             1. Get into everything.

             2. Bugging the dogs.

             3.Walk alone the coffee tables/couches

             4.Cruising

             5. Holding onto fingers and RUN!!!

             6. Happy when daddy gets home from work. (kinda brokes my heart but she does the seem when I get home from work too)

             7. Playing outside.

             8. Playing with her food

             9. Doing dishes.

            10. Hanging out with daddy (but who doesn't like to be with him)

She is still trying to stand all on her own. She can do it for a faw seconds before falling on her bottom and only from pulling herself up then letting go. I just love to watch her learn newthings everyday.

                 Happy belate 8th month birthday Lil Girl!!!

               Mommy and Daddy Love you very much.
