Edy turns 9 months

Yesterday, Edy turned 9 months old. Hard to imagine how time has gone by so fast. She went to the doctor for a checkup, and her says she looks fantastic, and is tracking very well on her development.
She is 80th percentile in head circumference, 55th in height and about 50th in weight - 27 3/4" and 18.9 lbs for those of you keeping score. So my daughter is just about exactly average, except she has a big head. Hmmm...sounds familiar....
She got only one shot this time, and DID NOT like it. NewMom took her for her last appointment by herself and said Edy barely noticed it when they gave her the shot last time. This time that was not the case.
Future work for NewMom and NewDad - start brushing her teeth, or at least let her start gumming the toothbrush to prepare for tooth brushing, and weaning off of night feeding. Night feedings are not only disruptive to parents, but when she gets more teeth, we will have to start brushing them after she eats at night, which doesn't sound too pleasant for anyone.
We also have temper tantrums to start looking forward to, as she gets more mobile, she gets more independent, and we don't want her doing certain things - she she will get irritated. Yeah, fun child raising! But we also have walking to look forward to. i will be happy when that happens so I can save my back from bending over all that time to hold her hands as she runs through the house now.
All in all, a good visit, I'll post the pictures when I get them downloaded off the camera.
