9 Months Old...and Counting


I'm just a few days shy of 9 months old. And usually right around my "month birthdays" I do something new or something new develops. This time, it's both!

#1. I've gotten really good at standing in the past few days. All of a sudden, I want to stand all of the time now. I only need someone to help me balance, but I can definitely stand on my own two feet...and even play with toys while standing.

And...

#2. I have a new tooth! It's my upper right front tooth. Mommy noticed it on the morning of May 7. She heard me grinding my teeth and thought that was odd since I only have bottom teeth (or so she thought). She took a look in my mouth, and to her amazement, there was tooth #3---just peeking out from my gums. I wasn't fussy or showing signs of teething so it was a surprise to all---except me, that is!

Here I am eating zweibacks. I'm actually grinding it against my top tooth now! (The pictures of me standing came out blurry so I'll have to post some of those at a later date!)
