Nine Months!

Chesley is 9 months! We went for her check-up and she is still as perfect as ever (in mama's opinion!) She is talking 90 to nothing all of the time. She does not know the meaning of the word 'still'. She is crawling everywhere at mock speed! A new trick is to crawl under things-like under the ExerSaucer, under the coffee table which has a second level so she just lays under there in between the two levels until she gets sick of it, under the dining room table and chairs, etc. She pulls up on everything including me in order to better be heard. She has a couple new tricks- clap clap is old news, the new hot ticket it "Touchdown!" and she flings her arms over her head and grins. This is in fact precious except when she does it while I am trying to feed her baby food, at which point the food goes everywhere but usually mostly on her. Fun fun. She loves looking out the front window when Daddy pulls in-she and Weeza stand there making happy noises and waging their tails. And although she doesn't seem to understand 'No no', yet she will shake her head at me as I say it to her. Oh! and she has the 2 teeth on the bottom from last month and is grwoing 2 more on top-but they aren't the middle 2 they are the next 2 (the 2 between the middle 2 and the eye teeth!)-- if they would grow a little faster she would be a vampire just in time for Halloween! Never heard of this in my life and certainly never seen it but not to worry I will take plenty of pictures when the fangs come in!! She just keeps getting cuter and cuter and faster and faster! Lord, help me when she walks!
