Talking and Fighting Back at Nine Months




Kaitlyn turned nine months old on Sunday, and she quickly tried to establish some ground rules. She has started saying "dadada" as soon as Brian walks in the door from work. It's always been clear that she vocally communicates her wishes. We have had many friends comment in the midst of a crying spell, "Wow! She has a set of lungs on her!" We are all excited that she may soon express her desires with words vs. just turning up the volume.
The day after she turned nine months, she expressed her unhappiness with Logan over his decision to take away her toys. She took a big bite into his arm! He came running over crying and I could see the look on Kaitlyn's face. She knew exactly what she was doing. Over the next few days she has continued to try to chomp down on his arm or any exposed area if he tries to grab one of her toys.
We have often remarked that she is going to be a tough girl; as Logan tackles her, she just laughs. We didn't know that we might have to keep our little aggressor in check.
