Little Miss Gerber Taste Tester

Ellia was chosen as a participant in the Gerber taste test!  

We were given the Apricot with Mixed Fruit & it didn't disappoint ...

What time is it?  It's time for Lunch! 

(I'm going to be singing that song for the remainder of day.  Thank you Bubble Guppies)

Hurry up mama!

She didn't like it, she loved it :)

And because I'm a firm believer in playing with your food...

MEOW!

Miss E is 9 months!

Oh Baby Onesie//Crocheted Glitter Bow Turban//FP moccs

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: 

coral polkadot jammies

-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!
