9 months

Our darling Clementine is 9 months. She is 19 lb.s (50%) and 29 in long (95%). She giggles and squirms. She sits up well and reaches for things but doesn't crawl. She doesn't have any teeth yet. She only likes smooth baby food (no chunks). She can say "ma ma ma" and "da da da" and if you say it back to her she will look you in the eyes and smile. She likes to look over and watch Rocco when we drive in the car. If she has a dirty diaper she likes to be changed right away (unlike Rocco who could sit in a dirty diaper all day). She has found her voice and can really wail, but is easily appeased with food, a proper nap, a new diaper, or a little attention. She is still waking up once a night but we are working on that. She doesn't care for bottles, but will drink a little out of them. She moves her arms up and down in a synchronized motion and also likes to move her hands and feet in circles at the wrists and ankles. She is starting to like baths and floating around the pool. She reaches out and touches with her pointer finger. She lights up when her daddy is around. She is our sweetheart and definitely a joy.
