I was up in Felicity's room with her tonight and as I've been doing lately, I put her on the damned floor so she would stop pulling my hair. She still had her blanket kind of wrapped around her and yet - and yet - she managed to sit up! To push herself up to a sitting position! It was thrilling and I took her picture after. Then I took a few videos of it but I didn't get good video of it until the third time she sat up. It was really, really a thrill, as you can hear from the LUNACY of my tone in the video:
She is doing great, I mean, she's different. She really only takes one good nap a day. She pulls my hair so hard it makes me cry. She likes to be held all the time, which now that I think about it is just like the rest of them. But, you know, I have never had a nine month old baby who slept all night so maybe they just ... don't nap that well? I don't know. I don't care, really. Half the week I take her out of the house right when her nap should be starting, so what can you do?
She is getting really chatty, it seems like more than the other kids. "Da da da da da da DA! Daaaaaah!", she'll say to Maria, it's just adorable.
Anyways, she's doing just fine. She'll be nine months old next Tuesday. Nine months. It really is going fast with her.
Ellie is also insane if not being held or, if she's on the floor playing, you have to be within 2 feet of her or she screams like the world is ending. What is up with that? I don't remember Abby being like this with the holding. At least I can take comfort in knowing Felicity does it, too.
