Milestone: Climbing One Level Up

Racia is 9 Months, 3 weeks and 3 days old today
Racia surprised mummy and daddy by climbing unassisted up onto a mattress platform at Gymboree today.
Before today, Racia has not been very successful when it comes to climbing over and on top of obstacles.
Mummy could not believe her eyes when she saw Racia climbing successfully up onto the mattress which is at least 6 inches in height at her first attempt.
From this, Mummy can see that Racia's climbing and balancing skills have improved tremendously over the past few days.

Milestone: Pulling to Stand - Part 2
Date: 24 December 2007 - Monday
Racia is 9 Months, 2 weeks and 7 days old today
Mummy first documented that Racia has started to want to pull to stand about two weeks ago. Since then, Racia's legs and arms muscles has gotten much stronger and starting from about 2 days back, Racia is finally able to pull to stand on her own.
Racia's favourite spot to pull is now the single seater sofa in the living room.
And Racia's all time favourite activity is :
1) To first pull on the sofa's arm rest to stand,
2) Then explore and dig through the piles of books/stuff on the armrest of the adjacent sofa!

Milestone: Saying Daddy
Date: 18 December 2007 - Monday
Racia is 9 Months, 1 week and 7 days old today
Mummy heard Racia saying "Da Da" today.
So Racia calls Daddy first rather than Mummy!
Even though mummy knows that babies at Racia's age is only testing her vocals and that "Da Da" does not mean daddy, mummy can't help feeling jealous that Racia says "Da Da" first instead of "Ma Ma"!
Mummy wonders when she will be able to hear Racia saying "MA MA"!
Milestone: 3rd Tooth
Date: 17 December 2007 - Monday
Racia is 9 Months, 1 week and 6 days old today
Mummy spotted Racia's third tooth today. It is still just a little white spot and this is located in Racia's upper left tooth position.
No wonder Racia has been drooling like a tap the past two days. And as usual, apart from the heavy drooling, Racia is very lucky that she does not show the regular signs of teething (like fever, loss of appetite and interrupted night sleep etc.)
Just like her second tooth, Mummy wonder if Racia's fourth tooth will also take more than a month's interval before appearing!

Milestone: Clapping Hands
Date: 14 December 2007 - Monday
Racia is 9 Months 1 week and 3 days old today
Racia is finally clapping her hands!
For the past 1 week, she has been trying to clap her hands.
What mummy means by "trying" is that Racia will clasp both her hands in a clapping motion and most of the time, her palms do not meet. Racia ends up clasping and touching her fingers to form a tirangle while trying to clap.
Finally today, Racia managed to fully clap both her hands (where both palms fully meet) and mummy could hear her clapping sounds loud and clear.
Mummy can tell that Racia really enjoys clapping her hands. She seems to be clapping all the time throughout the day!
