Tuesday morning we had Elizabeth's 9 mo. appt. She now weighs 17lbs. 15oz. (25th percentile), and is 28.5 inches long (75th percentile). These are the same percentiles Madilynn always was...long and skinny!
A couple days before her appt. she began not eating her baby food well, not wanting to be fed from a spoon at all! She would close her mouth and shake her head. The doctor informed us that she could just start eating what we eat (except a few things) just in small pieces. So we came home for lunch and decided to try her out and see how she would do. I gave her mac & cheese and banana and she ate it so well. Since then she's also had green beans, carrots, potatoes, cheerios, pancakes and yogurt. Lots of fun and she has enjoyed it all!
The day before we headed back to Utah she began waving and saying "Hi"! And she has also recently started clapping her hands, as well as shaking her head no when we tell her "no". She's so funny! One day I was telling her "no ma'am" not to get into the magazines and she looked back at the magazines and smiled and shook her head no at them. She's learning...Since we've been back home this is the view...toys strowed everywhere and both of them playing so hard!
After lunch here's a video of Madilynn playing peek a boo with Elizabeth making her laugh!This is a short video of Elizabeth clapping and then eating her mac & cheese and banana lunch!
