  • Crawling army style EVERYWHERE
  • Bouncing off everything and everyone
  • Moving constantly
  • Saying "dada, baba, nana, mmm" and other sounds
  • Drinking formula now but Mommy made her BFing goal of 9 months
  • Grunting, screeching, yelling, and talking back at us
  • Playing with her ball popping toy.. loves it
  • Standing while holding on and wishing she could walk
  • Throwing things
  • Starting to get bored with the exersaucer and jumper
  • Showing anxiety when we leave the room
  • Playing with Kip's cars and trucks
  • Growing hair in the back (past her hairline)!
  • Enjoying shopping trips
  • Reaching out to be held
  • Squirming during diaper changes - nearly impossible to get it done!
  • Laughing at big brother when he makes faces
  • Taking cat naps (30-60 minutes)
  • Mouthing EVERYTHING!
  • Eating fruits.. not really into veggies
  • Immitating Kip, Mommy and Daddy
  • Obsessing over Mommy's iPhone 3gs and knowing how to use it!
  • Letting us know when you are not getting your way
  • Sleeping 10-12 hours with some early feedings
