Today is Inara's 9th month in our lives and she is thriving quite well! She has so much energy that it's 9:15 tonight and she is WIDE awake as I'm posting this to my blog. She also very clearly said MAMA when I walked into the room sunday morning and tonight, said Mom and reached for me. :) Of course I'm extremely proud!

Here's her stats. Dr. Cranor was out sick today like the rest of the world and we saw the Doc in his last months of residency. He was quite nice! As usual, she did not get any shots so she actually doesn't mind going to the doctor's office. It was a bit cold in there to be nearly naked!

I fully expected her to weigh 18 pounds, but she did not...

Weight: 15 pounds, 13 ounces (8th %ile) - (she weighed 14 lb, 10 oz at 6 months)
Height: 27 1/2 Inches (50th %ile)
Head circum: 17 1/2 Inches (70th %ile)

She is still crawling and getting into anything she can that is not a toy! She still won't eat much solid food. I'm going to try veggies next. She seems to prefer savory foods when I give her tasters of my food. Well, I'm going to see if she is finally ready for bed! (mostly because I am...)
