9 month old girl!

Happy 9 months to our beauty queen!  Time to start party planning!

Doctor appointment: Double Ear infection...it's looking like we will be getting tubes soon.

Weight: 20 lbs 7 oz: 75-90 percentile

Length: 28 inches: 75 percentile

Head: 17 1/4: 50 percentile

Clothes: You wear size 3 diapers.  You are wearing mostly 9-12 month clothes and a couple 18 month things fit..  I think you are loving bows when I put them on you.  Bows actually stay clipped to your hair...yippee! You do not keep socks on AT ALL.  As soon as I put them on you....you take them right off.

Eating: You eat a 6 ounce bottle every three hours during the day while you are awake.  You eat fruit/oatmeal in the morning and 2 containers of food in the evening.  You yell if you don't get the food fast enough!

Sleeping:  You are getting great naps now.  It's only taken 9 months!  You take a good nap in the morning and a 2 hour nap in the afternoon.  You usually go to bed for the night between 7-8.  You wake up sometimes for the paci or you just wake up to cry out and then go back to sleep.  We put you in your bed and you cry for 20 seconds and go right to sleep.

Likes: being held while standing up...this is a sure fire way to get you to stop crying...we just stand up and you stop, riding in the car, riding in the stroller, eating, the paci, baths, your brothers, watching people, smiling, knowing what is going on at all times, your light up tea pot, clapping, and laughing

Dislikes: having something go over your head (clothes), being alone, being put in your bed

News this month: You now have 2 teeth!  Your top 4 teeth are coming in and it looks quite painful. You can pretty much get to anything you want my scooting around.  You keep getting up on all fours to crawl, but since we have no carpet you can't get traction.  It's coming though!  What a big girl you are!  We are enamored with you!  We love you to the moon and back!

watching your brothers run by.

pretty blue eyes.

2 teeth and 2 hands clapping!!
