Kira: 9 months

Kira is 9 months old! She is 19lbs and 28 in long, which is about in the 75 percentile for both. She is constantly amazing us with her understanding, physical strength, and vocabulary. She can stand all by herself, crawls at a surprisingly fast rate, loves to pull things out of baskets and getting into things in general. She can say mamma, dadda, Aila, and up. She is very determined and gets MAD if you try to take anything away from her or keep her from doing what she wants. She has learned to go feet first when getting off of something that isn't ground level, can climb up stairs and loves playing with her sister's hair. She still hasn't been able to figure out the whole eating thing yet but isn't completely opposed to trying new things.
