9 months old!
Our beautiful wee girl is growing so fast! Nine months old and recently she has learned to wave, clap hands and stand balanced by herself. She loves her two afternoons a week playing at Tiny Tots and will do a full-body shudder of excitement when she sees Yogi has come to her house to play. She bops to any music played or sung and will gravitate to the newest item in a familiar room. She happily laughs and babbles most of the time and still has long and peaceful nights. She is continuing her morning breastfeed with lots of fresh fruit and veges during the day. Her favourite foods are pumpkin and banana.
Her 9 month check-up and weigh-in at Plunket went very well today. Her development is on track and our Plunket nurse Carol gave everything the thumbs up.
Motherhood is about raising - and celebrating - the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that she is exactly the person she is supposed to be. And that, if you're lucky, she just might be the teacher who turns you into the person you are supposed to be.
