9 months

 Our sweet baby girl is now 9 months old.  
She is pulling up on EVERYTHING.  This results in many falls or objects falling on top of her.  
Sad.
But, she's a pretty tough girl for the most part.
 She loves to feed herself.  But, unfortunately, the mess drives me crazy, so most of the time I just quickly feed her with a spoon. 
 She loves to wave and will often stop what she's doing, turn around and see who's looking.  If she notices someone looking, she'll give them a quick wave and a smile.  She also loves to laugh at herself or others--it's so very cute.
 She is starting to crawl on all fours now rather than the army crawl that she's used for the past 3 months.  She can get around much faster.
 She even tries to stand every now and then, but she hasn't quite figured that out yet. 
She has added some new words/sounds.  She's now saying "dada", "mama", and "baba". She gets real excited to see Dakota or hear her barking and she says, "D..d..d"--as she looks around for her.
And my favorite new trick is her dancing.  If she hears music, she does the head bob and looks around to make sure people are watching her.  
She's such a sweet girl with lots of personality.
