Alaina had her 9 month check-up with the doctor today. She weighs 18.4 pounds which puts her in the 25th percentile. Her height is in the 75th percentile. Alaina continues to be long and lean! She is still not interested in baby foods. We've tried just about every fruit and vegetable available. The doctor suggested that we give up on baby foods and try finger foods with her. Alaina seems interested in feeding herself. She loves to feed herself Gerber Puffs and Cheerios. This week we are going to introduce her to some new finger foods such as bits of banana, cooked peas, and tiny crackers. Alaina only has two bottom teeth, but it looks like she has some more teeth coming in on top. It's hard to believe how fast she's growing up. Only 3 more months and we'll be celebrating Alaina's first birthday! Below are a few pictures to show you what Alaina has been up to lately.
Alaina has discovered how to take books off the book shelf. So fascinating!
She can pull herself up on her knees!
Alaina loves to play with her musical zoo!
Alaina's hair is getting out of control! We try to put it up in pony tails, but she loves to pull her hair and mess it all up! This picture is a perfect example of her crazy hair and cute smile.
