9 month stats

Vivian had her nine month checkup yesterday and did really well! It wasn't a shot appointment so she was pretty happy. The doctor just wanted to see her and check her growth. He was happy with what he saw. She's doing very well. Her weight gain has slowed quite a bit since at the beginning. That's fairly common for nursed babies - they tend to have lots of weight gain in the first six months then taper off. Formula fed babies tend to stay steady the whole first year. That's what they say anyway.

She weighs 20 pounds, 12 ounces and is in the 90%
27.5 inches long in the 50% 
Head circumference is 17.5 and the 70%

It's funny - she definitely had a growth spurt a few weeks ago based on her massive eating and sleeping but the only percentile she moved up in is her head! I guess we should be happy her head started off small. 

I love this little outfit. It reminds me of something a baby would wear in Great Gatsby. It has a matching hat but sadly I forgot to put it on her for pictures. She IS wearing her wedding shoes so everyone can see (admire) them!


I know you can't see her face in this one but it just cracks me up. The child is always moving.
