Dear Lydia...

To our sweet little girl. Because I know I'm terrible at updating baby books, I thought you might like to hear about some fun developments recently in your life. You are 9 months old now, and last Friday (June 19th) you started crawling. REALLY crawling. All the sudden, you just kept going! So now you are chasing me around the house and keeping us all even busier. (Exactly why I have no time to write all this in a baby book!) Also on that day I put you in new summer pajamas and your Daddy said, "OH my gosh... she's just so cute... she's edible!" :) Which I thought was pretty precious and you'd like to remember.

We love you so much and you have brought so much love and sweetness to our lives. Your big brother is (and always has been) so crazy about you- he always says, "I want to hug Wyddie!!" and loves to snuggle you and hug you so hard and kiss your cheeks. Yesterday he kept trying to keep your head still so he could kiss your cheek, and you kept trying to wriggle away from him, it was very cute. Then when I had you in a play yard he insisted upon being in there with you. I had given you some small tupperware to play with... and so when I put Josiah in there with you, he shook the big tupperware container until the small one popped out and you just cracked up laughing. For some reason, you thought this was hilarious- so he kept doing it- and you kept laughing. It was just REALLY cute, I wish I'd gotten it on video. Your smile and your "baby chatter" light up each and every one of my days. Thanks for being my own personal little baby doll! I love you so much!

Love,
Mommy
