Miss E is 9 months!


Weight: I'll post after her appointment

Height: I'll post after her appointment

Clothing size: We're finally sneaking into 6-12 months!  Although, her 12 month pj's still seem HUGE.





Diaper size: 3's

Feeding: 
5 oz between 5-6
fruit and puffs (which you absolutely love!) between 8-9
5 oz before your 10:00 nap
veggies and puffs when you wake up around noon
5 oz bottle when you go back down for a nap at 3 
dinner when you get up around 5 ( you LOVE Ella's chicken dinner, so more often than not, that's your dinner)  

Milestones:  
-You spoke your first word, big girl!!  You chant "Mama, mama, mama..." all day long and I love it :)  (a big difference from your brother whose first word was 'woof')
-YOU SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT!!  Twelve hours to be exact!  & you slept in your crib, another big feat!  Generally you end up in our bed between 11 & 2 and I get elbowed in the face and kicked in the stomach repeatably for the rest of the night.
-You've officially mastered the army crawl!
AND

-You're able to pull yourself up... Slow down little one!

Loves: 

-You frickin love puffs.  You can't shove them in your mouth fast enough!
-Your brother makes you laugh hardest!  Whether he's sneaking up with a "Boo!", playing with your toys with you, or making funny faces, you're always in stitches :)
-You're a huge fan of our new kitten, Knox.  You try to ninja grab her every time she walks by... Thankfully, she's a little saint and loves you enough to put up with it ;)
-You love any toy your brother plays with!  Trains, cars, blocks... If he's played with it, you want it.

Dislikes: 
You are as happy as can be!  Though, you're not so keen on having your diaper changed. 

Adventures:  
Costco... Target and of course the mall ;)

Mommy and Daddy could not get through the month without: Naptime!  & hylands teething tablets... they really do bring you so much comfort while teething :)

You are so your own little person and I absolutely love seeing how your grow each month!  I can't believe you're already 9 months and that I already need to start planning your first birthday party. (enter sob here.)

Little Alpert Fall Style

Since I'm in the crocheting business, I start getting Fall and Winter orders as early as July.  I like to have my kids winter accessories completed before I receive a rush of hat and winter turban orders, so it's easy to slip into Fall fever long before it's ever started ;)  Here are a few things I've picked out for the little Alpert's to wear once colder weather makes an appearance!



Little Man: Puffer Jacket//Auto Jammies//Stripe Baseball Tee//Baseball Tee//Henley//Flannel//Boots
Little Lady: Snowsuit//Gold Flower Pj's//Baseball Onesie//Oh Baby Onesie//Purple Stripe Onesie//Moccs

I also love these Halloween Striped Pajama's for Beckett and these Cat Pajama's for Ellia.

As soon as Jcrew sent out their Fall arrivals email, I immediately scooped up that Oh Baby onesie!  Cannot wait for E to wear that with her crocheted glitter bow turban :)  I also couldn't help but load up on the baseball tee's for Beckett & how cute is that henley??  Needless to say, the babes are now ready to tackle cooler weather ;)

As for me, I'm excited to whip out my Hunters and sport my new camo hat this Fall!  I also can't wait to break in my new leggings haha (at least I'm honest?)  Hope you're all having the best weekend!
