Cameron is 9 months old!

Baby girl we can hardly believe that you are 9 months old!

Cameron had her 9 month check up. She is 19 lbs (75th%) and 28.25 inches tall ( 90th%). She is a tall, chunky girl. She is such a smart baby. She loves to make funny faces and sounds and can stick her tongue out on demand. 

She had her 1st haircut this month. Her hair was getting long in the front and she was getting a bad trump like comb-over on the top.

She did not like the haircut! Such a sad face!

This month she began army crawling and then about 2 weeks later she began crawling on her hands and knees.

She began pulling up on her crib at nap time. So Daddy had to lower the crib to the lowest setting.

And the best thing about this month is that she began saying "Mama"!  The first time she said it, it melted my heart!

Chandler is 8!!

The night before Chandler's birthday she had a sleepover with one of her best friends, Sophia. I let her choose dinner and she chose pizza with slurpees and then a movie at home. 

Her birthday theme was the same as last year, SpongeBob. She still loves that show. Jeremy went to an authentic Mexican piñata store and requested SpongeBob. Look how big that thing was!

I scoured the Internet for SpongeBob treats and found how to make Krabby Patties. I think they looked awesome and they tasted even better!

We couldn't find a SpongeBob cake in a store that we liked, so I made one and Jeremy decorated it in less than 10 minutes. Pretty talented!

We had a pool party. I hired a babysitter to be with Cameron during the party, so I could focus solely on Chandler. They swam, played pool games and then finally was time for the piñata whacking! All the kids got a turn and it still wasn't busted.

So daddy had to take a turn. And then sadly that was the end of SpongeBob!

She got the fake glasses as a gift. Apparently they are all the rage now! 

Her gift from us was we let her get her ears pierced. She cried as they were marking the holes and then when it came time to pierce them she didn't even flinch. Such a silly girl!

At 8 years old, Chandler is 49 lbs and almost 49 inches tall. She is about to start 3rd grade. She loves to dance and sing. She loves doing gymnastics on her trampoline. She is obsessed with Beanie Boos. She loves to watch scary movies and play Animal Jam on the computer. She is smart, sweet, sensitive and funny. And she adores her little sister! Happy birthday baby girl. We are SO proud of who you are becoming. We adore you and love you to the moon and back!
