Well, it has been very long since I've updated my blog. Sometimes I think I just want to get rid of it. My life has been very busy with work and school and Alice, so blogging has not been a priority. At Alice's 9-month check-up she was in the 25th percentile for her weight (17 lbs 12 oz) and 96th percentile for her height. She has 6 teeth now and is practically walking (she has taken about 6 wobbly steps across the room on several occasions). She loves to clap her hands, dance to music, play peek-a-boo, wave and give fives. She will even give mommy big, wet kisses on occasion. She doesn't have a huge vocabulary but she can say "hi", "mama", "dada", and "baby." She gets cuter and more fun every day and we are so blessed to have her in our lives. We are looking forward to our first Christmas with her, even if she doesn't understand the concept yet. Below are some pictures from the Wood Jenkins (which no longer exists) Christmas Party earlier this month. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas! Enjoy!
