9 Months Old

Claire is 9 months old today. It is very hard to believe. The time has flown by! I truly cherish every minute I have with her. She is an amazing gift in my life.

Claire's Accomplishments:

~Crawling

~Going from sitting, to knees, to feet

~Getting down from standing without hurting herself

~Dancing to any music

~Clapping (mostly for herself)

~Feeding herself table-type food

~Sleeping thru the night (sometimes)

~Smiling and laughing at Daddy

~Saying 'bye-bye' to me when our babysitter comes

~Saying Mama and Dada to the appropriate people

~Recognizing that you are telling her 'no' and choosing to ignore it

~and probably my favorite, reaching for you and hugging you when you pick her up

I am sure I am forgetting some things, but I know she did all of these today.
