9 months already?

My baby girl is 9 months old! This is such an exciting age, Audrey is taking in the world around here, and making new accomplishments all the time. For example I love how I can speak to her and know that she is starting to understand me, and can sometimes communicate back. She waves hi and goodbye, she uses sign language to let us know when she is all done eating, she gives kisses when asked, she claps hands to songs that direct her to. She will look for daddy or John when I ask her where they are...and the one word she likes to pretend she doesn't understand is "NO".
She has also become a baby on the move in the last month..she began the month army crawling and just with in the past 2 days is starting to get around on her hands and knees. She also likes to cruz although she still is little shaky when it comes to balance. O and the most adorable moments are when she "dances" to music. I put dancing in quotations because all she really does is rock back and forth and bounces on her bottom...but still so adorable!
The past 9 months have flown bye! I find it hard to believe we will be celebrating her 1st birthday in just 3 short months. It's in moments like this that I realize that staying at home with my children all day is not always easy, but that these days don't last long, and I will take every moment I can good or bad to spend with my little ones because they aren't little long enough!
