Growing up SO fast!

Today (12/29) we have a clapper! Emma is so smart and growing up so quickly. She LOVES to wave. Everywhere we go, she waves at whoever passes us. She knows exactly what it means, and loves when people wave back. She started actual real crawling two weeks ago (right around my birthday). She had been crawling a few crawls, rolling, scooting, etc. to get where she wanted to go. Now she crawls all the way across a room. She is laughing and talking all the time. She says, "ma-ma", "da-da", "ba-ba", "ga-ga", "ca-ca", and a lot of other cute noises. Sometimes it sounds like she is trying to say "hi" or "ry" when I say it. She is pulling up on everything. She can only pull up to her knees, but I know it's not long before she can stand up alone. She can stand holding onto her toys with one hand on an object. Her little legs are so strong! You can see her thinking when she is playing with her toys. It is so neat! I can't believe in two weeks she will be ten months old! It is going by TOO fast! However, each day is even more fun to play with her. We've tried a few "real" foods, but she isn't a big fan yet. She keeps pushing them out of her mouth. We've tried puffs, cheerios, cheese, mashed potatoes, bread, and sweet potatoes. She hasn't really eaten any of them though. We'll keep trying. She is still eating baby food and nursing, but we'll soon get her on finger foods.
