Your other big accomplishment over the past month was learning how to go from laying on your stomach to sitting up all by yourself. You are a pro at that now and do it all the time. Although you did have a few face plants during the learning process, you managed to keep trying and figured it out.
You love to talk and have so many sounds now that it seems like you have your own baby language. You can say mama and dada and you know what they mean. Dada is a happy word for you; I guess you think he's the fun one. You usually say mama in a distressed voice when you want to be picked up or rescued from whatever horrible thing is going on that you think you need rescuing from. I still like hearing it though.
You love to eat just about any kind of pureed baby food, but you don't like anything thicker or textured. You stick your tongue out and gag, so we need to work on that. You can pick things up and put them in your mouth, you just don't like to eat anything firm enough to pick up. Unless it's paper! Also, you have two teeth now, so you should put them to use. By the way, it's almost impossible to get pictures of those teeth. This is what we resorted to in trying:
And it still didn't really turn out.
You love taking baths and have been playing with your washcloths, so we decided it was time to get you some bath toys. I picked out a really cool fish toy for the bath that I thought you would like and I was right. You did not want to let go of that toy even after your bath was finished.
You are such a happy girl and I love that I get to spend my days with you. Happy 9 months baby girl, I can't wait to see what the next month brings.
