¡Aye Carumba, Nueve Meses!

I know I say this every month, but I can't believe my little baby is growing so fast! I am amazed every day by how smart she is and how fast she is learning and the things she can do.

• She loves to eat finger foods now, not just baby food. I have a lot of fun giving her new things to try from my plate and she always loves what she gets. Well, except for scrambled eggs. She's not so sure about that one, she's gagged a couple times :)
• Bath time is soak mommy time. I never get out of there dry, but I don't mind. She has so much fun playing and splashing in there.
• She loves to play and be silly with her Daddy. He can always get huge smiles and giggles out of her.
• Everytime single time I hold her, she puts her head on my shoulder, sucks her thumb, plays with my hair, and just lets me cuddle her for a moment. I love it.
• She loves to have her teeth and gums brushed. Never too early to start good habits!
• Her socks don't stay on longer than 5 seconds in the car. As soon as her bum hits the carseat she starts pulling and tugging to get them off. She always gives me a triumphant squeal when she succeeds.
• She gets better and better at crawling on her hands and knees every day. I'm pretty sure the end of the army crawl is near.
• She only has tantrums when she's tired and I'm rocking her before her naps. It doesn't happen very often, but man are they getting good and funny! Sometimes I can't help but stop and laugh because she is so dramatic!

We took her in for her well baby check up on tuesday. She is 27.5 in long (51%) her noggin is 17.5 in (67%) and she weighs 17.19 lbs (22%). We were sure she weighed more than that and the dr. actually said she wanted us to up Ky's feedings a little bit. She never seems to be hungry to me and I'm pretty sure she's thining out because she is so super active. She's still got some rollies left and I think she looks perfect! Especially since when she was 4 months she was 94%. They were out of flu shots so we have to take her to the health department to get those on Monday. I have to say I was pretty glad she didn't have to get a shot, breaks my heart, not that she gets out of it. Other than that everything went great and she's growing perfectly! We love you Baby Bug!
