Leilah: Nine Months In, Nine Months Out!

This month Leilah:

• Has been resisting diaper changes and any type of lying down position
• has been teething so much! Chomping on her finger & drooling a bit.
• has shown off her two bottom teeth lots.
• had fun at coop preschool
• Still enjoyed staring at all the mamas and kids at Stroller Strides
• began sleeping longer most nights waking only once or twice (that also might be that she wakes up more and puts herself back to sleep since I turned off the baby monitor and only get up when I can hear her from my room!)
• Continued to sleep on the go or have sleep interrupted for naps
• Did fine with a babysitter while mom and dad had a date night and did great all day at Gramma's while Mom and Dad had a long date day for the Garth Brooks concert
• Crawled a lot! She's fast with her army crawl and just yesterday she started practicing trying to get up on her knees.
• Ate lots of solids. There hasn't really been anything that we've given her that she doesn't like.
• Got another cold and cough :-(
• Continues to laugh at everything her big brother does, although if he takes something away from her she will cry to let him know she didn't like that.
• Is in a Mommy phase with some separation anxiety, making it hard for Daddy to hold her if Mommy is in sight.
• has been enjoying weekly swim time with all four of family at the YMCA.
• did well on a family weekend away in Bellingham.
• was the cutest little matching Jack-o-Lantern pumpkin with her brother (thanks to their talented Nana who made their costumes).
• was a trooper keeping up with the big boys trick or treating and she even went through the haunted house on Halloween!
• Is 98th percentile for height (28.5") and 95th for weight (22 lbs)!
