9 Months

Alydia is growing up!  She is now nine months old and I can hardly believe where the time has gone.  She is getting such a fun little personality.  She makes all these funny faces and chatters all the time to get our attention.  She also growls all the time (which is partly because we are always saying, "What does a lion say?")  She finally figured out how to crawl, but still prefers to just talk for attention and then get picked up.  She has been trying to cut a tooth for a few months now.  The doctor told us at her 6 month checkup that one was coming, but it still isn't here yet.  We just love her to pieces and love how she is learning so much every day and starting to copy what we say and do.  Her favorite thing is definitely dancing to music, especially when daddy is singing or making noises for her to dance to.  We love our Lydi girl!

 She switches off between bear crawling and crawling on her knees

 Lydi does this with her hands when we sing "Itsy Bitsy Spider".  So cute!
