Kaylynn 9 months old

It's hard to believe that Kaylynn is already 9 months old!! Wow!! This year is going very fast!! She had her 9 month checkup on Monday 10/1 and she weighed 18lbs exactly (50th percentile) and was 27.5 inches long (also 50th percentile). She's growing nicely!! The doctor was impressed with how well she stands and cruises and everything!! She likes to eat now too, she eats baby food still, along with noodles (her favorite) and peas and cheerios and puffs and baby cookies and almost anything she can get her hands on! She also still nurses 4-5 times a day. She still has no teeth though (which I don't mind)!! She's a very smiley girl who wants to do whatever her big sister is doing!!!

While at the appointment, both girls got their flu shot. Loren was very excited to get a shot (she hasn't had one since she was 18 months old, so she doesn't really remember them), and when we play with her doctor kit...shots are no big deal! So when the nurse came in with the shots, Loren wanted to go first and was very excited...until...the nurse put the needle in her arm!!! She yelled out "OUCH!!!" and started crying!!! I felt bad for her! She got a purple sticker and wouldn't move her arm for a good 2-3 hours after that!! Kaylynn didn't even flinch at the shot!!

I'm getting the girls' pictures taken on Wednesday, so look for lots more pictures in the coming weeks!

We also have a big birthday this month. Loren turns 3 on the 18th and we're having her party on the 27th! Should be fun!!!
