9 Month Dr. Appointment

Just a quick up date....Gabriela had her 9 month check up yesterday and she is progressing wonderfully. She weighs 20lbs 10ozs and is 28 1/2 inches long. She is in the 80% for both height and weight. She got one shot and didn't even cry which was awesome. She was a little cranky last night and pretty cranky so far this morning, but other than that no issues! They said she has the teeth of a 14 month old and is at the development of a 1 year old with her motor skills. Okay that's all until next month, take care!

9 Months Old

As usual no complaints about our little princess....well maybe one, she likes to bite on clothes when she is trying to fall asleep and occasionally misses and get's your skin too! We are trying to break her of it, but at least it is not intentional at this point!!!! We finally had to put the gates up and safety lock the kitchen cabinets. She can go up the stairs now, but not down. It's amazing how quickly that happened. Today she had ground chicken for the first time and loved it, we didn't really expect anything less than that though. She eats beets & asparagus too. She's enjoyed a nice week with Auntie Meg (who by the way has been a huge help!). We've been battling a nasty little cold for the last few weeks and can't seem to shake it, but overall she's been a trooper! She is also getting in the habit of throwing her toys and bottles that she has no interest in. I'm not too happy about that, but another obstacle we need to work on. Another change in Gabriela is that she has discovered her voice, no words yet, but she loves to hear herself babble. We enjoy it:) We have also entered the world of Skype, so Nana and Gabriela can chat while they are apart from one another. We have our 9 month check up on the 14th, so I will check back in then and hopefully upload pictures before then. Bye for now!
