Nine Months!


Weight: I'd guess about 19.5 lbs... but I'll update it after we go to her 9 month appointment next week (Update: At her appointment, she weighed right at 18 lbs and was 27" long.  Not sure what's going on, but we go back in 2 weeks for a weight check.  Hopefully she'll get back to growing and the stunt is just from all the milestones she's reached in the last 2 weeks - 4 teeth, pulling up, spike in tricks like clapping and peak-a-boo, etc.)

Clothes & Diapers: She's is wearing size 3 diapers and anywhere from 3-12 month outfits... quite the range I know!  (Mostly 6-9 months clothes though)

Eating & Sleeping:   She is doing great with new foods!  She still eats 5.5 oz around 6:30, 11:00, 3:30, and 8:00.  Her last feeding is sometimes earlier if she's a little cranky... which she has been in the evenings due to teething.  She usually has toast & jelly/fruit for breakfast, pureed fruit/veggies & a finger food at lunch, and finger food at dinner (usually whatever we're eating, but sometimes she has purees if she can't have what we're having).  Her favorites are pasta, bread, ham, puffs, green beans, peaches, and bananas.  She'll eat strawberries & blueberries, but she doesn't love them.  She still takes two naps a day - one from about 8:30-10:30 in the morning and another from about 1-2:30 in the afternoon.  She goes down at 8 (sometimes earlier) and I wake her at 6:30.

Mood:  So sweet and very curious.  She is learning so much and even though she's cutting FOUR teeth at once, she's mostly happy... although she does have some cranky pants moments.

Likes: Buttons... she has a little pink bag with buttons on it, I have some bedroom shoes with buttons on them, and of course any of our clothes with buttons... she wants to eat them all!  She also loves reading books, playing peak-a-boo, eating finger foods, playing in the bathtub, being tickled, snuggling a blanket, Mommy & Daddy, her baby friends at the babysitter (there are 2 new babies)

Dislikes: Getting drops in her eyes (which happened a lot when she had pinkeye... 3 times a day for 7 days... it was torture I tell you).

Milestones: She had pink eye, she now pulls up on everything, she claps when we say "yay" or "good job," she waves regularly, she head butts (terrible trick I know), she knows what "no" means, she turns off a light switch when we hold her up to it

Sentimental Things Mommy Wants to Remember: Sweet giggles and smiles... she's getting so big, so fast!

Practical Things Mommy Wants to Remember: Pink eye SUCKS!
Taking pictures is getting to be a bit hard, haha

She's such a ham :)

Hands in her mouth is a constant these days due to teething

Sweet girl :)

But Mommy, I want to stand.
