I just finished a stint as Mr. Mom this week. Caroline and I had some good Daddy-Daughter bonding time. She still says da-da-da a lot. I'm pretty sure it means "I love my Daddy, he is awesome." She has also become fairly adept at standing. She also spins around on her bottom. I took her to her to the pediatrician yesterday for her 9-month checkup. Caroline is almost 20 lbs now. I don't recall her height, but it is the 90th percentile.

Work is picking up now that the holidays are over. You know the new year has arrived when you get 20 meeting requests in your email.

Happy birthday, little sister!
