9 Months!

This little girl turned 9 whole months today!  Before we know it, we're going to be watching her blow out her birthday candle.  Oh, my! 

She can chill with her feet up,

or sit down nice and sweet,

 

 

or she just might surprise everyone and STAND UP on her own for the very first time!

Who needs to crawl anyway when you can just go straight to standing and walking? 
This little gymnast is also working on her right legged splits.

She's no slacker, either.  Gotta get those middle splits down, too.

She's got two bottom teeth already, but Dr. Betty said she's about to get 3 more on top. 
"Did you tell 'em about my teeth, mom?"

Happiest baby on the block.  As long as her mama is around:)

 

And now for the stats: 

18 lbs. 11 oz. = 50th percentile
  She's still a great eater and has three solid meals a day in addition to her milk five times a day.

28 3/4 inches long = 90th percentile
She's grown almost 2 inches in the last 3 months! 
No wonder she's been outgrowing her clothes like crazy.

 

17 1/4 head circumference = 50th percentile
No big melon head for this baby girl:)

Cami, we think you are perfect in every single way.  You are babbling non-stop and we love it.  You can say bebe, mamama, dadadada and hi.  You love playing peek-a-boo, especially right after bath time, and will laugh right along whenever others are laughing.  Most of the time you start laughing, and then clapping very quickly follows.  You are just so happy!  You started drinking water from a sippy cup and really seem to like it.  Dr. Betty said we get to start giving you Yo Baby yogurt and cheese, too.  I'm sure you'll love both. 

We do need to work on your physical abilities a little bit, but I'm sure in no time at all you will master all of that.  We've got to teach you how to go from laying down, to sitting up, to pulling up to a stand, all on your own.  Lila said she will be your trainer!  I think you are probably planning a big surprise for us and going to hop up one day and run after your brother and sister.
