Nine months old! Wow! She's waving, clapping her hands, signing "more," and talking, talking, talking...of course not actual words (other than "mama") but she sure does babble a lot! Still no crawling but every time she gets into the crawling position I think this will be the time she gets that forward motion going. It seems like it could happen at any moment. She's started pulling herself up a bit on some things - especially on my leg when I'm standing and she wants me to hold her. She only gets up onto her knees, but she's figuring out how to pull herself up higher.
This is what she looks like when I think she's going to crawl. Any day now! Her hair is really coming in...it's almost the same color as Henry's; just a bit lighter. It also has a touch of red in it, just like Henry's did when he was younger. Her dark, dark hair that she was born with is pretty much all gone and this new, soft brown color has taken over. I'm just so happy she has hair! Not like Henry at this age - he barely had any. Her eyes have stayed blue so far but I suspect they are changing to green - they seem to be to me at least (even if no one else sees it!).
We went to the zoo today and she loved looking at all the animals. She clicked at the hippos (a sounds she makes when she's trying to get someone's attention). Below is a picture of her and Henry waiting for the Birds of Prey show to begin. I haven't taken her in to get weighed. She has her 9 month check up next week, so I may end up just waiting until then.
