Height: 30 inches
At my nine month appointment, I continue to be very tall and am finally averaging out in weight.
Clothing Size: Mix of 12-18 month stuff. Still have the issue of pants being too long and onesies being too short.
Special Outings: The beach and swimming a lot
Firsts: First word, "MaMa," and first time being babysat while awake! I did great!
Likes: Swimming, walks with my cheerios, unstacking blocks and towers, taking EVERYTHING off surfaces around the house, playing with Mom's hair, playing "shot put" with my parents (Dad pretends I'm a shot put ball and launches me to Mom), playing on my mattress, playing with the Wii remote, and rolling the ball to Mom
Dislikes: Mom walking away from me, water in my eyes, rashes, mosquitoes, solids most of the time (still not hooked on eating solids), taking naps, sleeping through the night, and being sick
Any big changes: Nope, I'm a happy little girl who loves Mommy and Daddy
Biggest Lessons Learned: I can honestly say that I love this stage that Ashton is at. I didn't think I would with her mobility increasing every day. Once again, Ashton surprises me. She loves exploring and learning. Sometimes, she'll just being sitting still on the floor opening and closing her hands. She'll be looking at that so intently and I love imagining what she's thinking. She learns more things each day and I love being able to witness that first hand.
Monthly Pictures:

| I love this trick of Ashton's but Joseph is not a huge fan. She has started pulling out silverware to help us. |
Monthly Video: Sorry it's long. Just watch the first minute or so.
What the next month should bring: Switching to cloth diapering
