9 Month Measurements

Weight: 20 pounds, 14 ounces
Her weight puts her at the 83rd percentile. She gained just over a pound in the last month. Her head circumference is also in the 80th percentile.

This doctor visit was pretty short once the doctor got in there. Everything looks good & normal. Next time we go to the doctor is for her 1 year appointment and then she will get two shots and they also have to draw blood to do blood tests.

Length: 30.5 inches

That gives her a growth of a half inch within the last 2 weeks. That must be her 9 month growth spurt. I'll have to measure her length again next week to see if it jumps up anymore like that. Obviously she is off the charts on her length.

Comparison:

Mommy: At 10 months, mommy weighted 20 pounds 3 ounces and was 28.25 inches long.

Daddy: At 9 months, daddy weighed 22.5 pounds and was 30 inches long.

Isabel: Well, obviously she is longer than both of us at 9 months of age, She weighs more than mommy did at 10 months, but considering she is at least 2.25 inches longers it seems right. It's interesting that she has now surpassed daddy in her length. Up until this point she was always just a little shorter but kept growing fast to catch up.

Tomorrow is her Gramps's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRAMPS!

They always read the blog in the morning, so the stuff they see is from the previous day, so if I type Happy Birthday today then he will read it at the appropriate time.
