I can't believe how big Meggie is getting. At small group, Lisa commented that she's looking more like a girl and less like a baby, and it's true. She's getting taller and more dexterous and positively agile. Right now she's at the pulling-up and cruising stage, and can stand on her own a little. She can walk a little with help. Nothing below waist-level is safe from her curiosity.
She's learning new things every day. This week she learned how to clap her hands. She pairs it with a knockout grin, and pretty much comes out seriously cute. Then today I caught her crawling into the laundry hamper we use for a toy bin. She just swarmed up the side, settled down matter-of-factly on the music cube, and from that more convenient vantage point grabbed her theoretically off-limits changing pad, which she pulled out, unfolded, and waved around. Then, when she was done, she carefully tipped the hamper over and crawled away. Hilarious.
She and her daddy have a favorite game: he puts things on end tables, and she takes them off. She and I have a similar game: I put laundry in the dryer, and she pulls it out. She also likes books, board and ordinary. She'll sit on the floor and flip through pages. She's actually mostly very gentle with them, and enjoys pulling off dust covers.
She's just short of ten months old right now.
