Nine Months Old!

Rachel is 9 months old today.  It seems like this past month Rachel has learned how to do so many things.  She is now sitting up without any help and rarely falls over.  One day I found her sitting up in bed.  I'm not sure how she got that way because I put her in bed on her back and I've never seen her get into the sitting position on her own.  But somehow she did it.  She is also very close to crawling.  She will get on her hands and knees and rock back and forth and then she'll just fall over on her face.  So not quite there yet, but almost.  She continues to babble more and more.  She is better at eating Cheerios, although most of them end up on her bib instead of in her mouth.  We can't wait to see what next month brings.
