Holland learned to clap this month and she uses her new skill all the time. Out of the twenty-five frames I shot for this picture, about twenty of them had motion blur on her little hands, like trying to catch hummingbird wings. She loves to eat whatever we're having rather than baby food puree (who could blame her?), so she's enjoyed trying lots of new foods this month. She can pull up to standing and walk a little bit if you hold both of her hands, but she's still content to army crawl when she really needs to get somewhere quickly.
This baby girl continues to be as sweet as pie. She's all sugar and (true to third child lore) seems to know that her job is to roll with whatever crazy schedule the rest of us are operating on. She wins the best sleeper award, too!
Happy ninth, my little love. I'm so glad I'm your mommy.
