9 months and growing like a WEED!

Last Friday Baylee turned 9 months old! She went in to see her pediatrician for her 9 month well check that day. She is doing great and don't have to go back until she is a year old! However, since she attends daycare I can almost guarantee she will be back at the doctor before then. She is on antibiotics now for an ear infection in her left ear that developed from a virus she had last week. Here are the stats: Weight: 17 lbs 3.2 oz (21 percentile) Height: 27 1/2 inches (48 percentile) Head: 17 3/4 inches (80 percentile) apparently she has a rather large head :) At the appointment we were given the green light for PEOPLE food! She and I went grocery shopping Sunday afternoon and I bought apples, peaches, bananas, strawberries, turkey weenies and gold fish. When we got home from the store I grabbed a banana and tried giving her a small piece...she wouldn't have any of it! This coming from a kid who LOVES banana BABY FOOD! Monday night I grabbed a wienie out of the fridge and cut it into small pieces...she GAGGED and then silled her lips shut so we couldn't force her to eat it.....this was too funny! LAST night I decided to see how she liked strawberries. So I proceeded to wash just one and cut it up for her. She LOVED it! So I decided to try a weenie again...loved it too! After she ate what I cut up for her I tried sweet peas. It has been a WHILE since I gave them to her. The first time she wouldn't have anything to do with it. This go round I couldn't get it in her mouth fast enough! Guess she likes her sweet peas like her cousin Layton! :)

First time eating strawberries
