My sweet, funny, growing girl

In just a couple short weeks, you, my little cupcake, will be nine months old! You have gotten to be such a big, strong baby girl. Since the day you turned seven months, you have been rapidly crawling all over the house, recently exploring Bailey's water bowl and venturing into the laundry room to play with my yellow rain flats. That seven-month mark was life-changing for you in many ways. At the same time you began crawling, you were able to set yourself into a sitting position and also began pulling up to stand! You're able to satisfy your curiosity about things by maneuvering yourself to better see/hear/feel them, and it makes you so happy. You are also able to (attempt to) flee, squealing, as I come after you: "I'mmmm gonnnnnnna get you!" Your sweet sounds and endless expressions delight me, and I am so thankful for you!
You funny little thing.

You breath is quick and loud when you get excited.
Anything you put in your mouth, you like to share by putting it to mine.
You raise your eyebrow(s) when something intrigues you.
As we turn your light off before bed, you always turn your head, ready to look at your blue night light in the dark.
You grin when I bite your finger nails and giggle when I nibble your fingertips.
You open your mouth wide and lean into my face after I give you kisses.
You laugh/pant when I come into your room after you've woken.
You wave your arms and kick your legs eagerly when I am about to pick you up when you are lying down.
Your face seems to relax, your eyebrows go down, and the corners of your lips turn up as you giggle when I peek at you from the kitchen as you play in the next room.
You get so worked up when you play with your giant teddy bear. You try to climb and consequently tackle him, breathing rapidly as you grip his fur and bury your face.
