Ellie 9 Months

Ellie at 9 months is all smiles and giggles. She is so much fun and is now constantly on the move. She can't crawl yet in the traditional sense, but can get all the way across the room in a blink by rolling and doing a worm-like crawl. She gets up on her hands and knees and rocks or she will get into a yoga plank position on her toes. At her nine month appointment she had dropped to the 6th percentile for weight at only 15 lbs. 15 oz. Her head is in the 79th percentile and her height in the 38th. I think she must be using all the calories to grow that big brain of hers. She is a good eater and I am trying to fatten her up. She still sleeps from about 7:30 at night to 7:30 in the morning which is bliss for me. She also still takes two naps during the day that last usually 90 minutes to two hours. She is learning how to wave at people and to herself in the mirror. She is great at feeding herself and still only has two cute little bottom teeth.
