9 months old

Kate is nine months old today. She's turning into a real monkey. She practices her acrobatics everywhere -- from her carseat to shopping carts to the bathtub to the sling. She's quite the daredevil, always testing her limits, letting go of the furniture as she cruises around at breakneck speeds. That girl can MOVE. We're continuing to feed her solids very intermittently, a few times a week. She's got the whole cheerio thing down. Kate shows a strong affinity for books, music, dolls and balls. Her first easter was great fun for all of us, and she examined each gift with a scientist's care. She is truly a delightful child.
