Zoey - 9 months



Zoey's turn! Zoey can best be described as determined. When she really wants to master a new skill, she keeps trying until she gets it. Or until she gets really frustrated, at which point she shrieks loudly. She also has lots of silly, giggly moments, especially with Lucas. She loves dancing to music, playing with her musical tea set, and big stuffed animals. She still enjoys bouncing in the jumperoo, but her new favorite toy is the lion riding toy.

Zoey tried drinking formula out of a sippy cup today. She was so proud of herself.


Looking cute in her puppy dog jammies (these used to fit Lucas a few months ago!)


Zoey is an adventurous eater and usually insists on feeding herself. On this particular day she reached for my apple and sucked on it for awhile, trying to take little bites with her tiny teeth.


It may look like Zoey is about to crawl, but she's not. She can shift to hands and knees but hasn't figured out how to move forward yet. Sometimes she goes backwards, though!


Zoey loves standing and has been practicing pulling up to stand all by herself. She is also starting to practice transferring between two objects or people, and holding on to objects with just one hand.She will take a few steps if she's holding someone's hands. It will be a close race to see whether Zoey or Lucas walk first!


Zoey's stats: almost 15 pounds at the end of December, wearing size 2 diapers (at least until she uses them up - then we'll let her move to size 3), wearing 6-9 month clothes, and two tiny teeth. She's really catching up to her siblings!

Here's Zoey playing the piano


And here she is getting really excited about her Sing-a-ma-jigs
