Allie has learned so much in the last month. She is now saying mama, she did her first sign (she copied mom with her tongue out for dog) and she is crawling! Although she only goes for a few feet and then flops on her tummy and army crawls to what she needs. She now has 7 teeth and is hopefully going to get her 8th soon, hopefully, mom is tired of you waking up in the night. She started sleeping through the night but that only lasted a week. Argghh! but I am hopeful that this month she will get it down pat. Allie loves exploring our living room and kitchen. She is getting into everything! Sometimes I miss the days when she would just lay on your lap and play with a toy. :) She is also getting super close to pulling herself up on things. Can't wait to see what she does next. Our big 9 month old!
