9 months in, 9 months out...

Marley has officially been out as long as she was in! I can't believe she's already been around for that long, it really has flown by. Sadly I admit, I have enjoyed her a whole lot more than I did Tate. I still love him more than life itself, it's just he was so...challenging. And still is; but that's it's own post.
Some things about my Marley-moo are she is so mellow and easy going. She definitely has her moments, but on the whole is pretty easy. She is my sweet little mama's girl. Her first word was "mama" because anytime she wants me and can't see me she'll sit and whine "mama mama" over and over until I come get her. She crawls everywhere and pulls herself up on everything she can to stand. She is the pickiest eater ever but will always eat chocolate! She is a VERY EARLY RISER, usually between 5:30-6:00 am, and is happy as could be to be awake. And she hasn't had her official 9 month appointment yet, but I had to take her in a few weeks ago and she was 15.4 pounds....my tiny girl!9 months ago today!

And 9 months before that! We found out we were pregnant the day Chace left for the MTC...it was definitely an emotional day all around!

Wow, time does go by fast. She sure is a cutie! And I know exactly what you mean about enjoying her more because your first is so challenging!! That's the same situation at our house too.

She is super duper cute. Glad she is easier than Tate. That is Mr B for me...challenging is a nice way to put it. lol

Oh boy, I hope ours is a girl, and as easy as yours! Spencer has definitely changed my thinking about motherhood!! I can't believe it's been that long either, time just flies!

Hopefully this isn't too creepy (since we don't know each other), but I really just wanted to leave a comment. I've read your blog every now and then (you know those nights when it's like a blog stalking binge?). Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that it's been comforting to read that someone else has experience with a more "spirited" child. They don't really bring up things like "colic" when you register at Babies R Us! Anyway, my daughter is now 3, and I love her more than anything in this world, but looking back I remember wondering if there would ever be a light at the end of the tunnel, because I just didn't think it was supposed to be that difficult. So here's a high five, and you probably deserve a medal!
