We love Marissa!

So Marissa turned 9 months old on the 20th of August.

She loves swimming even when the water is freezing cold. Splashing is her favorite!

We all enjoyed our August cousins birthday party at the Novaks! So glad we know someone with a pool - even though it is 45 minutes away. It was definitely worth it.

A couple of days before that I caught her plunking away on the piano. I was in the kitchen and didn't realize it was her until I thought about it and figured that no one else was in the house.

She has to stretch to reach but now she is always at the piano. Daddy is so proud. Tonight at Grandmas she crawled all the way into the living room to see who was playing and ended up joining Dawson. No picture for that but it was cute.

Marissa is a joy. She is letting her needs and wants known these days with a very loud noise - I'm not sure how else to describe it. This last picture is of her new cheeseball smile that she was doing the other day all day. It was so funny!
