And why would I play with BORING old toys, when I've got DESITIN?

My little playmates flew home this morning.

As you can see, I am a great "helper" when it comes to packing!

Today was a great day! I went to my third swim lesson (I am practically a fish now!) and I went on a picnic at the park! I've attached a photo of me picnicking below:

Since I am so BIG, my Mommy bought me a re-newed activity table today. I LOVE pushing all of the colorful (and noisy!) buttons while I stand up like a BIG girl!

I went to our neighborhood playground with my playmates today. I've attached two photos of me protesting (with kung fu moves!) the fact that my Mommy FORCES me to wear a silly hat every time we go outside:

My friends from our previous hometown came to visit me today.

I LOVE having NEW playmates!

That's ME babysitting MY little friend...

There there, little friend!

For the first time ever, I managed to sit myself up (versus my Mommy sitting me up) following my nap today. I am SO big! And since I am SO big, I went on a play date WITHOUT my Mommy today! My friend and I went on a stroll and ate lunch together. I did great for almost two WHOLE hours before I melted down five minutes before my Mommy arrived. I've attached a photo of the FUN below:

I went to the doctor today for my 9-month well visit. According to my doctor, I am super-healthy and growing great! In fact, I am 28 3/4 inches long (90%) and 18 pounds, 5 ounces (25-50%). The doctor told me that since I have been so busy over the last three months rolling, army crawling, standing, and moving around (non-stop!) that I have become "tall and skinny," lucky ME!!! I've attached a photo of me relaxing while I waited for my Hep-B immunization below:

Since it's Happy "You're the BEST Dat-Dat in the World" Day, I took my Daddy to our neighborhood pool for a swim. I am teaching him the elementary backstroke in the photo attached below:

Today was a GREAT day! I went to a friend's birthday party and I ate TOFU (I loved it, Papa!) for the first time! I attached several camera-phone (read: moderately fuzzy!) photos below:

I don't need my banana smashed up like a BABY anymore! As you can tell from the video attached below, I can eat my banana (and cheer for myself!) like a BIG KID now! I am SO BIG!

My Mommy and I went to the swimming pool at our gym today. Although I am quite SERIOUS in the photo attached below (I DISLIKE wearing hats substantially!), I still had a great time "swimming" with my friends, splashing in the water, and playing "Motorboat" with my Mommy:

Today was a very BIG day!

I went to my very first swimming lesson this morning!

Then, I ate strawberries for the first time during lunch!

Since I am SO big (nine months, one week tomorrow!), my Mommy and Daddy have decided it's high time for me to "help" with the chores. I've attached two photos of me folding the laundry below:

My mommy says it's time for a, "Oh my goodness. Katie is getting SO big" post. I've attached two photos from our favorite Dim Sum restaurant below. The first photo is my Ama and me when I was tiny (20 days old). The second photo is my Daddy and me from today (276 days old!):
