Hannah Pictures - 9 months!
I can't believe how much Hannah has changed in just the past few weeks.  She is so aware of everything now and is very active.  I don't know if I can say she is officially crawling yet, but she certainly is mobile!  She goes backwards very well and sits up on her own.  She tends to scoot back while in a half sitting half crawling position.  She will occasionally take one or two crawl steps forward if she is motivated enough - like trying to reach doggie kibbles while we watch the doggies eat.  Hannah is totally in love with Igor and Babushka.  She likes to "help" me feed them and can pick a bone out from the cannister and give it to them.  She gets all excited and squeels when she gets to do that.  She points (her cute little pointer finger is out at all times now)  at everything and is always asking "ba?" like "whats that"?  She especially likes clocks, pictures, the vents, lights, and anything on the ceiling.  Hannah loves to play peek a boo, patty cake (with no help clapping - she has mastered that!) and especially loves to wave to anybody!  She waves whenever we leave the room! (click here to see Hannah wave!) Hannah has her two bottom teeth now and is eating pretty much everything soft or bready.  She loves to eat what I am eating and gets very upset if I don't let her try something.  She enjoys tasting sour stuff like orange juice (freshly squeezed from our oranges) and lemonade and makes the cutest little pukker face - then a big smile.  She giggles if we ask her if she wants more and usually she does - its so funny!  I wish you could all see it.   Hannah can say Mom!!!! She just started saying her mmm's this week and will say mom if we ask her too!  No Da da's yet, but she does call Dave "Ba Ba" so I think that counts.
