Nika update - 9 month milestones

It’s a nice cold and sunny morning here in Seattle. Hopefully it will warm up enough so I can take Miss Nika for a stroller walk. I’m sure looking forward to doing more things outside. I’m tired of all the cold and wet weather…I’m ready for spring!

Thought I would share some Nika updates with you today. I can’t believe it’s already been 9 months! Nika has reached some great milestones. She is finally crawling forward now. She’s also able to prop herself up from lying down too. She’s rolling and crawling all over the place. Now we need to go out and purchase some baby gates.

Teeth update: Nika loves to eat teething biscuits and now has six teeth in, four up top and two on the bottom. She’s become a very picky eater ever since having the flu. She only likes to eat the banana-oatmeal-peaches sauce and will also eat sweet potatoes but that’s about it for varieties. She also goes back and forth with liking rice and oatmeal cereal.

We’re working on getting her nap schedule back on track. She’s only been doing one nap a day since being sick. We’re trying to get back to two naps a day and re-establish her routine.

Nika loves her toys, especially getting new ones. I find she becomes easily bored with her toys after a week or sooner. Right now she enjoys playing with this pound n’ play. She likes hammering on it and gets a kick out of the balls falling through and putting them back. We also just discovered looking at old photo albums. She loves to look at the pictures and flip the pages. She recognizes pictures of daddy, the kitties and our dog Jesse, it’s really cute.

You can check out more pics of Nika on Vlad’s Flickr site, he posts some of his favorites there.

Chat ya later ~ Cathy
