Photos!

All right, I managed to post the photos from November '09, ha! Well, it's something!

First word!!

Baby girl has been saying "mom" and "dada" discriminately for about a month or possibly two, but because this was so gradual they didn't seem to really count as her first words (she started with syllables, and over time started discriminately using them - it was hard to really pinpoint a day when it happened).

Today she definitively said her first understandable word besides those two! It was "up." Not too surprising, since we've been trying to teach it to her when she wants to be picked up, but still!

She's also raring to walk but can't quite yet - she's a pro at pulling herself up and likes to practice getting up and sitting down again (carefully). She's also walking along the furniture and with assistance, but thankfully hasn't tried to jaunt off on her own (she tried that a few months ago when she was first pulling herself up, and fell straight down on her face - ouch!).

Now, if only I could get around to posting some more pictures...
