		<description><![CDATA[Wow. I came home from work yesterday to find Juliette and Becoming-A-Mom in the living room. Juliette was pulling herself up from sitting position to standing using Becoming-A-Mom&#8217;s legs  to help. Then &#8211; the new thing &#8211; she stood up and lifted both hands free and clear of Becoming-A-Mom&#8217;s legs, standing on her own with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ok, this post has been back-dated to show up on the correct date. Juliette is now 9 months old! She&#8217;s a healthy, happy and active baby who definitely has a personality of her own. Not much to report really &#8211; she continues to add to her little repetoire of tricks and occasionally surprises us with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Juliette has still not started crawling (fine by us!) but she&#8217;s certainly trying hard to walk. Lately when she&#8217;s left on the floor, she&#8217;ll do a modified bum-scoot to quickly get herself where she wants to be. This is different from the bum-swing-shuffle she started doing a few weeks ago &#8211; she now leans forward [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I forgot to add &#8211; the little monster has developed a new bad habit. When I was changing her this afternoon, Juliette leaned forward as if to hug me. She planted her mouth on my right shoulder, then chomped down hard. Becoming-A-Dad was the none-too-happy recipient of Juliette&#8217;s teeth marks on his shoulder. Little red [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow, what a difference a few days makes! Juliette is now going to sleep in her crib around 7-8 pm each night, and sleeping pretty much straight through until 7 am in the morning. A couple of wakings and squawks during the night, but certainly not the wailing and nursings all night long. She doesn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;re taking it in stages right now, getting Juliette used to falling asleep on her own before we remove the night-time feedings. The first night Juliette woke up as before at around 11 pm when Becoming-A-Mom went into [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay, step #1 of Sleep Training has begun. Tonight Becoming-A-Mom did not let Juliette fall asleep at her breast before putting her in the crib. This resulted in what we expected &#8211; loud complaints and crying. But Becoming-A-Mom stuck to her guns and sat beside the crib, talking to Juliette and reading aloud. The cries [...]]]></description>
