Our little ham-chop is already 9 months old! She is as busy as ever and in to absolutely everything! Larkyn Kate is crawling all over the place, pulling herself up, saying "Dada" "baba" and "hey". Believe me, I'm still working hard on "Mama". We hope to get that down soon!
Larkyn had her 9 month doctor's appointment and showed Dr. Mitha all of her new skills. After checking her out and answering our questions, she said to us "And you're off---good to go!" Larkyn immediately put her hand up and waived good-bye to her! Dr. Mitha started laughing and couldn't believe she made the connetion to leaving! Larkyn dropped below the 90th percentile in weight this month...just barely:). She weighed in at 21 lbs. 7 oz. She is 28 inches long, which is the 75th percentile. Her head is 18 inches...over all very proportionate!
Larkyn is eating more table foods this month. She has tried turkey, chicken, hamburger, beef roast, lasagna, green bean casserole, bread, potatoes, grilled cheese, yogurt, noodles, and much more! She is beginning to feed herself more, but has a hard time grabbing on to the slippery bananas, peaches, and pears! It is also quite a drawn out process and takes a little bit longer to finish a meal!
Larkyn plays Pat-a-Cake, claps, waves buh-bye, blows kisses (when you ask her to blow a kiss she brings her hand immediately to her mouth, but doesn't quite extend it out yet!), puts her hands up for "So Big", cheers on the Packers by waving her fingers in the air when we say "Goooo Packers!", pulls herself up on everything, opening cupboards, and much more!
Some of Larkyn's favorite toys include her new Fisher Price Nativity Set, Jesus (the baby doll at daycare:)), cell phones, remote controls, bowls and spoons, and many of her books.
"Hey Giraffe...is your tail growing longer?"
"Ahhhh, Giraffe how I've missed you! Let me kiss you...or just bite your tail!"
"Yes, I can be a little stinker...what was your first clue?"
"Okay Mom, just one more!"
Is that 28 inches round? What a cute little butter ball!
I think this is the best mood she has ever been in when measuring her!
Still lovin' the bath...
"So Big!" or "Goooooooo Packers!"
