9 Months Old

Baby Girl is 9 months old!  We hung out with a friend and her 3 month old baby a few days ago.  I couldn't believe that Karis used to be that small.  She is learning new things every day.

Things Karis can do: (you can tell what I used to do...)
- uses thumb and index finger to pick up cereal and feed herself
- passes toy from hand to hand
- waves "hi" when prompted
- points
- crawls!!!
- pulls up on furniture and stands independently
- walks all over the place in her walker
- pulls magnets off of the refrigerator
- babbles while playing independently
- says "da-da" "ma-ma" and many other repetitive syllables
- chooses desired toy when 2 are presented
- reaches up or towards the person she wants to hold her
- enjoys looking at and touching pictures of a story when read to

We'll go to the doctor this week, and I will report back with all of Karis's new stats.  Enjoy a few captured moments of Karis lately...
