9 months old!

She lost her squeaky dragon, so we replaced it with an octopus and she is as happy as can be. With most kids you have to break the pacifier habit, with Noam it will be her octopus. She loves swinging!

Update: Noam is growing up soooo fast! She is pulling herself up on furniture and standing. When we ask her where is Ouzo...she looks for him. Yesterday, we were playing on the floor and I asked her to give me a kiss...she crawled all the way over to me from across the room and opened her mouth, stuck her tongue out and put her face on my lips. She is really starting to understand, and we are melting from love!

Noam has 2 new teeth!!!!

She eats her first non-blended meal (chicken, carrots, broccoli, zucchini and potato)



Update: Noam is trying to stand all the time. She sits all by herself and tries to walk on four (instead of her knees). She kneels with no hands in order to climb on Ouzo, there is a real love story there...he is crazy about her! She is growing up so fast, we are just trying to savor every moment with her.

Noam loves her new toy!

She's already driving and only 8.5 months old....we knew that she was gifted!!! :-)
Loves posing for the camera and showing off her new wheels

Update: Noam is now saying Ma-ma and ba-ba! She can also stand when holding on to furniture when we stand her up.

Ooooohhhh, how fast these kids grow up now-a-days!
