8.5 months

here i am at 8.5 months. i still prefer to stand than to crawl. however, i've finally figured out how to get to all fours from a seated position. even so, i mostly collapse onto my belly. but i can do plenty from that position - like tear apart my ABC mat! i'm expert at turning the pages in my books. i love kitties (my brother avi and the kitties in my books make me squeal with delight), i recognize a few signs (including CAT and BALL), and i have one (very sharp) tooth!
