Month Nine

The Chunns had an exciting February. Melita drove through 4 new states: Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida. Our final destination was Gulf Breeze, Florida to visit Andre and Crystal for a much needed vacation. They were great and generous hosts and we can't wait to do it again. Melita was a great traveling baby and handled being stuck in her car seat for 11 hours like a champ. One thing she hated though was having to wear a life jacket when we went out on Andre's boat. But when she got to take her life jacket off and go for a walk in the sand she was happy once again. We wished it would have been warmer so we could have gone swimming in the gulf.

As we head into the month of March, Melita is learning lots of new tricks. She can clap her hands not only when she is excited but also to imitate me doing Patty Cake. She also giggles like crazy the whole time. She's still not walking, but instead she is climbing on everything. Twice she has been able to get off of the chaise lounge by flipping over onto her stomach and sliding down feet first. She is stringing together a whole bunch of vowels and has been saying MaMa and DaDa indiscriminately. She has also taken a liking to singing. It's pretty cute.

Happy Nine Months Melita Moo!
