Lillian had her 9 month birthday last Thursday and then her 9 mo check-up on Friday. She now weighs 21 pounds 10 ounces (89th%tile), is 27.5 inches long (48th%tile) and has a head circumference of 18 inches (90th%tile). Her pediatrician commented on what a great demeanor she had and she passed most of her first standardized test with flying colors (just a standardized questionnaire that the parent fills out based on what your baby can and can't do with fine motor, gross motor, behavioral and problem solving- the ASQ for all of my pediatric PT friends). All and all a very health baby girl that is a little slow on the crawling band-wagon and has a big head because she is so smart.
The other crazy thing that happened on Friday was that she awoke with 1 new canine tooth and the second one was just starting to poke out today. So what is weird about this is she doesn't have any of her other top teeth and she awoke making a new hissing/crackly sound that is not far off from a vampire sound - if vampires really existed. So now I have an adorable vampire baby:)
Cutest thing ever. She entertained herself in front of the mirror going between these 3 poses and talking and smiling to herself for 30 minutes. I should have taken the opportunity to get a few things around the house done but instead I just sat and watched and smiled.
How could she not be entralled? She is seeing a reflection of all the Love and Joy you have in her!!!
