Nora: 8 and 9 months

Whew, I am soooo behind on blogging.

Life has been crazytown, y'all. Our sweet "chubby pumpkin" (as Lucy calls her) is now 9 months old!

She has celebrated her first Christmas, and New years (post to come), has 2 bottom teeth and is crawling! She does a sophisticated army crawl, which can become very quick when she sees a person, or thing she wants badly.

 She's also started pulling up to standing, and is a little babbling baby. We hear mama, dada and baba on the repeat, and I swoon at those sounds again! She is attempting some baby sign, but so far it just seems like she is playing with her hands.

With crawling, she has gotten incredibly curious. She started out timid at first, but now, every space is her tunnel, and the Christmas tree lights a new teething toy.  She started crawling the day after Christmas, and we quickly took the tree down (teeth and electricity don't mix well.)

I love to see this little blossom of her personality, and I can't wait to see what the next few months bring, before she turns ONE. (How can this be happening in the next few months!?)

We love you Nora Jo!
