Broken Record

9 months old and still perfect in every way. Here is her scrunchy face that she makes a lot. She wanted to get outside real bad.

Part of me couldn't believe that I put her in such a girly, frilly dress, because while it's adorable, the tomboy in me detests it. Hence, the do-rag...it makes her look tough, yet girly. Thanks Shannon! Okay confession time...I think girly is cute (to an extent). Even I can admit that.

First oatmeal pancake was a success.

Can't believe she is 9 months old ALREADY!
She rocks.
She smiles now.
She pulls herself up to the couch.
She says Da Da and Ma Ma.
She thinks Easton is hilarious.
She loves being outside.
She curls her tongue up and it's so cute.
She sucks on EVERYTHING. Seriously, I know all babies do that, but she tries to eat the dishwasher and the bathtub...really? Did I just forget about that part?
I love her more and more every day and she makes me so happy, and I know I say that all the time...broken record. Broken in the best possible way.

This couldn't have come at a more perfect time! I've been missing her SOOOOO bad!!!!!! But she's getting too big. She says "ma ma" and "da da"?!!! And i have to say, I LOVE the do-rag!!! I want it! She looks so dang cute.

I really wish we lived closer because this is killing me that I'm missing all of this!

I love her. I am laughing that you think that dress is overly girly. It doesn't even have lace and puffy sleeves. Love the do-rag and everything about her. I can't believe she is 9 months.

Jake sucks on everything too! He's on my lap, sucking on the desk edge as I type. Weirdo babies.

She is adorable! She looks so much like Easton it just kills me. Way too cute.

And her first word was "daddy." What's not to like?

She really is one of the cutest baby girls ever. I love the second picture! So cute! I'm glad she's such a perfect lil thing for you.

I didn't know that you hated girly girl stuff- and it's funny you thought the doo rag made her look tough because I thought it was super cute! I've never seen that on a baby! I love it! Did you make it or what?

and also.... she is so cute!

Kara said...

She looks so huge and big! What the heck?? Is that the dress I got her? The one you put a do-rag on with? I guess I don't get the do-rag thing?

She is beautiful and just as cute as can be. Both your kids are! Thanks for keeping us updated on what a special daughter you have, I'm glad that she is so good for you!

I'm so glad you are loving every minute with Carly and everything about her. The days go by so fast and she will be going to school soon so ENJOY! She is adorable in all those pictures, I love the do-rag, which I have never heard of but her Grandpa probably won't dig it too much:) She looks so grown up.

I miss them both so much! Way to win your daddy's heart, Carly. That was smart.

Nine months already?! Really?! There's no way! Well, she is still adorable and I love the frills and do-rag. :)

She is so cute. How could you NOT be a broken record. I never realize you have any tomboy left in you. You are totally girly now. I forget you ever weren't.

Brynne, Aaron and Cade said...

She gets more and more beautiful ever time I see a picture. You have MUCH to be proud of!

Jill said...

Yes. Just what I've been wanting! She looks more like Easton to me now. Definitely siblings. I love all the pictures and all the stories that make me feel like I kind of know who she is and what she's up to while I'm too far away. She's just gorgeous.

Mary said...

She is awfully cute--in her frilly and all! Those beautiful eyes . . .

Matt and Shannon said...

Yeah, a post! Cute kids Emily! I can't believe she is talking already - I always compare what Miles is doing and Carly seems so far ahead, not just one month or so. I love that headband - I wish it had fit Claire. That's the thing with kids clothes - so many things never even make it off the hanger.

Ben & Diane said...

Well......she is really, REALLY cute. I love the picture with the do rag!

Lani said...

Carly has the most expressive face. And you are able to capture it so well! She has such a sweet personality to go with her adorable face! I want to reach through the screen and give her a sqeeze!
