Layli at 9 Months

Nine Months Old
Time is going by so quickly. Layli is growing like a weed and changing everyday. Her little personality is coming out more and more. In her ninth month Layli learned all kinds of new things including how to walk and how to clap her hands. She also got her third tooth!
This was before she started walking on her own. She was still crawling, pulling herself up to stand and walking holding on to things. She would let go and try to stand on her own as well.





I had to put this one in here because this is how she would often sit. She'd sit on one leg folded underneath her with the other one up. It was really cute.



She figured out that she could take a few small steps after letting go of whatever she was holding. She would also stand up in the middle of the room.



Right before she started walking unaided, she would grab our fingers and pull us around so she could practice.

Back and forth and back and forth!

We went to visit our friends, the Eady's, in Cedar Rapids. Bahia (below) and Layli took a little ride on a car merry-go-round. Layli didn't quite know what to think but Bahia really loved it.



Unfortunately, I don't have photos of her when she really started walking on her own, only video.
