Estella's 9 Months!

Okay, I know, I'm almost a month behind, again! I did, however, take these pictures with her sticker just a few days after her 9 month birthday. So the idea of recording her size difference between each month is still in tact. Phew!

Estella's little monkey is getting smaller now. I can't believe we are approaching a year old! Crazy! She is now 16 whole pounds and is 26 inches tall. Somewhat on the small side, not that that is surprising considering her midget parents.Our baby girl is now holding onto things and standing with confidence. She is even starting to let go and try to stand up by herself for a moment. I wouldn't be surprised if she were to start walking before the end of the year, which would be really cute considering how tiny she is:) Her big brother, Nikolas, started walking at the end of his ninth month, so she is just trying to keep up!
I just love this face:) She has so many expressions and can go through them all in under a minute.

The Sweetest Baby Ever.

Everywhere we go people say, "Is she always this happy and content?" To which we say, "Usually!". She doesn't complain too much, even when her toes are frozen and her belly is empty. She does, however, complain quite loudly when an older brother takes something away from her.
