9 Months - Tiny but Mighty
This little girl is now 9 months old. Where does the time go? She just had her check-up and is definitely doing well, although she is keeping on the small side of things. She now weighs 14 pounds (3%) and is a little over 26 inches long (7%). The doctor isn't overly concerned about her size. She said it is most likely due to her activity levels. So we have added another solids feeding. Now she is doing baby food 3 times a day accompanied with some sort of finger food. She is a good eater and we have been branching out with finger foods with different flavors and textures. Speaking of activity levels, she is all over the place. She is crawling up a storm, pulling herself up on anything she feels is stable enough and has begun to cruise. It is only a matter of time before she is all out walking. She also can sit herself up after crawling around. She is clapping and kind of waves. She just loves to explore and check stuff out. She got a dolly for Christmas (well actually she got 3!). She hugs them and gives them loves and pats them. It is very cute to watch!
Gillian has her 2 bottom front teeth. You can see them barely poking up over her bottom lip in the photo. They are fairly prominent, especially when she smiles!
Gillian did very well with her first holiday season. She got into opening presents a little, but more just liked to crawl around and get into the wadded up paper!
Peek-a-boo! This is after she did a face plant on the deck. Alistair was holding her hands to stand in front of him for a photo. She buckled her knees and so he just let go which resulted in her falling forward flat. Poor baby!
Gillian has quite the personality which is evident in this photo. She is such a turkey and gets into everything. She is going to be a handful!!
