Nine Months

Big, big changes for little Alison! At the beginning of this month she is up on hands and knees, not going any where but up on those knees. Just before the end of this month she pulls herself up to standing on this one toy that she has. She likes standing and hanging onto this toy so much that she can get quite upset if you take her away from it. I can't get into her head but I think she wants to be like us, especially her sisters. Up and walking around :) Then just today she actually crawled for the first time. I thought she was going to skip this all together! Also, this month Alison had her first vacation - first time at the beach, first time in a swimming pool, first time at an amusement park and first road trip. She did great and we all had a blast. Finally, Alison cut her first tooth this month. Seems like I've been anticipating this for months. I recall when she was about three months old being able to see some of her teeth just below the surface of the gums. No stats/measurements this post. Ali will be visiting her doc soon though.
