Month 9
Now that your baby has discovered how to stand, and maybe even cruise, in the last month or so, he will likely take this time to perfect his new skills.
Your baby may also: Pull himself up from sitting to standing Get into a sitting position from his stomach Stand while holding on to someone or something Wave bye-bye Play pat-a-cake
Some babies may even be: Drinking from a cup Standing alone well Say words other than ma-ma or da-da
His language skills are also developing rapidly. He's listening and taking in everything he hears. It's amazing what they understand at this age, too. Encourage him by talking to him as you would any other person. Your baby will likely start taking an active interest in conversations, even if not directed at him. Soon, he will start to shout for your attention! A more distinct personality will start to shine through now, too.
