Future Gymnast?

For all of you mothers,
I have a firm grasp on her and
Momma is our spotter.

This is true Da Da fun!

After our bath time a week ago...she showed us her dexterity on the shower rod (aka the uneven bars). Now it becomes a ritual. If she wants to go for a full ride gymnastics scholarship to the Univ of Alabama...that would be acceptable. Yes i did say the "other school", but, she will probably be following in her cousin Lexie's footsteps.

Well, before this time of athleticism. I decided to join Avery in the bath, I was getting wet on the outside due to the over excited splashing, so i donned my bathing suit and jumped in. She seemed rather unfazed by the new visitor. I have to say with her and her bath toys and Da Da there wasn't much room for the water. I really enjoyed it and so did she when she finally figured it out.

9 month update

Waiting on Dr. Amy

Sarah Avery had her 9 month appointment today. She has been sick with a double ear infection and Dr. Amy tells us that her ears are clearing up and she seems to be healing nicely. Her behavior tells us she is fine and she is playing hard.

17.8 lbs (20th percentile) and 28 1/2 inches long (75th). So our little girl is tall and slim and an outie for a belly button.
Dr. Amy once again loved how physical she was and how smart she was and told us as a warning that we will have our HANDS full by the time she is 2. It made us laugh and now I am nervous.. hahhahaaa..

Dr. Amy asked us lots of questions about her development and speech and eating. So, by our responses, she said that she wasn't fond of the stage 3 foods and to go ahead and start feeding her table food.. WE WERE SHOCKED.. wow. Now our baby is for sure a big girl. My mother in-law fed her scrambled eggs for dinner and she liked them ok. Weird! I can't believe she is 9 mos.

She got a great report and we are excited that she is developing so well. We are soooooo thankful for a healthy and fun baby and we continue to pray that we would usher her little spirit in as God has molded her to be.
