Life as we know it since becoming parents

Nine Months of Addie

9 months discovering parenthood 03This post is coming a bit late, sorry we are a bit behind in doing them in fact I think we even missed last months. I cannot believe that Addie is 9 months, soon enough she will be 10 months old and you’ll have that post to read too! I still wanted to document her at this age because I don’t want to forget anything in the future. 

When I took Addie for her 9 month check up she was 28 inches tall, 17.6lbs, and her head circumference was 43cm. She was in the fiftieth percentile right across the board. This did not surprise us at all because we are often asked if she is younger than she is. What can we say, she’s our little pixie. 

Addie is very adventurous and mischevious. She get’s this little sparkle in her eye, and you know she is up to no good. Plus if you catch her doing something you shouldn’t and say her name she either starts giggling and smiling at you, or tries to crawl away as fast as she can.  

Our baby at 9 months old.

Age: 9 months

Stats: Weighs 17.6 lbs (70th percentile), 28inches long, and 43cm head circumference. She is still wearing 6-12month clothing, though she has long legs. She also still has just her 2 bottom, front teeth. 

Favorite Foods: Anything! She gets so grumpy if you do not share what you have with her. She is also happiest if we just let her sit in her highchair and feed herself. She will happily eat and sort of berry but her favorite is still blueberries. If Jason is having porridge for breakfast she wants it too, and there’s often apple, raisins and much more mixed in. We introduced honey and peanut butter recently, and she loves both on toast… yes at the same time!
 
Words: Mama, Dada, Nana are all for sure words she can say.
 
Favorite Activities: Getting into all of her sister’s toys. She is captain destructor though and will knock over all the playhouses. She has most recently has started using her little push walker. She is happiest when outside,or playing in water.

Favorite Things: I got the girls a miniature water baby and it has become Addie’s favourite. It’s with her during bath time, bed time, and where ever we go lately. She also loves this little snow leopard stuffie. Trying to climb the stairs has also become a favourite thing.

Least Favourite Things: Anything that restrains her from being able to do what she wants… car seat, high chair, stroller, etc. Being quiet is also her least favourite thing to do. 

Signature Moves: Clapping! She is constantly clapping lately. If she is happy she starts to bounce up and down. Most recently she is cruising along the furniture and also letting go of it while standing for a bit. It wouldn’t surprise me if we have an early walker again.

Sweet little Addie we love you so much. We love the new dynamic you have added to our family, and we are so thankful for how mellow and easy going you are. We cannot wait to see how you do next month when we go to Disneyland, and you fly on a plane for the first time. We know you are going to love it.
 

Our baby at 9 months old will not sit still. Our baby at 9 months old.

    So cute! My little munchkin is 9 months as well but is only a tiny 13 some odd lbs (he was 5lbs when born) but he’s a long fellow too. 😀 Cute pictures!

    Ohmygosh, those photos are adorable. Our daughter is just over 10-months and is a little pixie, too. She also aligns with a lot of Addie’s likes and dislikes. I’m loving this baby stage and all of the personality.

    I love that those are the “for sure” words she can say! They say so many things in baby language, and I bet those unsure words are going to be real so soon.
