More Nine Month Developments

Too many milestones this week to fit all in one post. It seems that 9 months is the magic number for our little girl. In addition to crawling, it seems Lena has also developed some language skills!

We believe (though we're not entirely sure) that Lena signed for "more" a couple of days ago, and yesterday said the word "mama". Her "more" sign looked more like she was flailing her arms up and down and together, but she would do this motion while we were feeding her, when she was done with a bite and wanted us to offer her more. Sometimes her hands would even touch... see how to sign for more here.

Yesterday she was babbling with Daddy and when Mama came into the room she immediately started saying mmm, mmmm, mama, mama. It could have just been a coincidence, as she has started saying more consonants like nnn, and ggg, and kkk, and mmm, but Daniel is pretty convinced she was saying "mama". So sweet.
