Nine Months

Eve is nine months old!

It's actually been a rather rough month. Evie has had a tough time lately.

Does this look like the face of a hungry, double ear infected little girl?

Because it is.

Evie has been rather fussy this month. She hasn't slept very much at all (so neither have Matt nor I). It is so unlike her. She was having some feeding issues and the return of her well documented pooping issues (don't worry, I'm not going to go into it). And the other night, Matt and I discussed the possibility she might have an ear infection, but dismissed it.

Today we find out that yes, she is in fact in need of more daily calories, and she has a double ear infection. And yet, I bring her home from the doctor, and she spends 30 minutes laughing hysterically at her sisters on her bedroom floor. Best.Baby.Ever.

She continue to cruise on the furniture, eat any solid food we'll allow her and give me near heart attacks by trying to climb up the main stairs. She is so happy. Even when she doesn't sleep. Like this morning. She had just fallen asleep for a nap, so I left Annie and Kate coloring in the kitchen to put the carseats back in the car. I came back in and she was screaming her head off. Kate looks at me and says, "Sorry. I wake Evie up." Upon further probing, it turns out she did wake Evie up because "it [was] morning time." Obviously no one should be sleeping during morning time. So back up Eve went to play and cause trouble for another four hours. :)

Either way, Evie is awesome. We love her.
