Big girl

Kate hit the big nine month mark last Thursday. At her doctors appointment yesterday she weighed in at a whopping 17 lbs 14 oz, which puts her about the 25th percent. She is 28 inches long which puts her about the 65th percent. I don't know how big her head is but it is about the 50th percent which is always a relief to know that we won't have to get her hats abnormally large like her brother. She is crawling everywhere as fast as can be. She pulls up on anything she can and cruises around the furniture. She is such a happy and loud girl. She screams for fun and growls when she is playing with toys. Though she is a little stingy with them, she has started giving kisses and will wave good bye when she is in the mood. Her blond hair is painfully slow coming in, but it looks like it will have some curl to it. She is trying more and more table food and loves sitting up to the table with us when we eat. We used to refer to her as the anti-cuddle because she was so wiggly and wanted her own space. She has softened in her old age and now will snuggle up especially if you are holding her favorite blanket. I know nine months isn't that long, but it seems like forever since we met and started loving her.
