9 month WCC

Woo hoo! A check up without shots!! Libby has no idea this is the easiest check up she is going to have for a while but she still had a good time.  Showing Dr. Adams and Ethan Stonerook all her tricks during the visit.  But the best news for mommy was that she has finally cleared 18 pounds!!

This mommy has been uber-stressing about Libby's weight.  Plotting her on personal growth curves and micro-managing her eating, while many folks have assured me that fat rolls on your legs mean that you are doing well.

So yeah! I'll take the 45th percentile for weight and 95th for height! Who knows where she got that body type.  But I'm working on "letting go" of my stress and relaxing a bit ...  this should be comical to those folks who know I've been working on these goals since I was about 5 years old :)

On a rather funny note, once again, Gram brought out her motor milestone magic.  After Libby's check up, she took her afternoon nap.  Now we had to sheepishly admit that Libby is not pulling up or cruising at her visit but upon entering the nursery we found.... a standing baby!!!
If we didn't know it before, we definitely know it now... we are in for a world of fast-moving trouble!

So glad to hear the good news about Libby's weight! BTW, when Kate became more active in her crib we had to take down the soother. We came in to get her one morning and the whole thing was down in her crib. Somehow she had undone ALL of the straps. I'm hoping Libby is not going to be as "curious!"
