So what is Lydia up to at nine months? She has not quite mastered the traditional method of crawling forward though she certainly finds a way to get around. At night, she has started crawling backwards to the base of her crib. Lydia also has trouble staying still during diaper changes. We are hoping Grandma Carole will help us better baby-proof the house this week during her visit for these reasons. Additionally, Lydia has started to imitate head movements and vocal play sounds. Yesterday during her favorite Sesame Street music video, she sang along with a ba-ba-ba sound. Just in the past week, she has shown a greater appetite for various purees. When Lydia sees other children at the grocery store or beach, she often reacts by shrieking in excitement. She loves to swim in the pool and enthusiastically kicks her feet and splashes her hands. My favorite new development is that her hair is now long enough for a little ponytail in front. Megan
