Madeline is 9 months old today. She is growing up so fast...we don't know where the time has gone. She is crawling everywhere and is getting faster by the day. She is able to stand on her own and has begun to walk sidestep along tables and window sills. We know that it will be a short time before she's walking on her own.
We took her for her 9 month check up today and she didn't have to get a shot, which was a bonus. Matt and I were betting with the doctor how much she weighed, and Dr. McGowan was a lot closer than we were! She is now 22 pounds, 12 ounces, and is 29 inches long. She has grown 2-1/2 inches since her 6 month check up. The doctor said that she's doing very well and is in the 90th percentile for both weight and height. He doesn't doubt that she'll be walking soon.
Life continues to be busy with work and Madeline. She absolutely loves daycare and there are a few kids her age that she plays with. Pat says that she's the easiest of all the kids to take care of. She's always in a good mood and she's eating her solid food well, etc. She's not a fan of veggies, but loves sweet potatoes and squash. We can get her to eat peas here and there, but she's getting better. She loves bananas and pretty much every kind of fruit.
Here are some recent pictures of her that we took at the park last week, along with some pictures from today.
Have a great Labor Day!
