Grace is busy squealing in her crib, playing with her toys and turning her mobile on and off, so I will make this quick!
Here are her new stats at 9 months:
weight 16 pounds, 13 ounces; 25th percentile
height 28 inches; 75th percentile
head; 75th percentile
We were surprised to hear that she is only in the 25th percentile in weight, as she sure has grown in the last few weeks. She is an eating machine and really she is never full. The pediatrician said, once again, feed her until she stops. We try to explain to her that she'll never stop. She'll eat and eat. We sure love that our daughter takes after us.
Here are some new milestones:
scooting backwards
eating finger foods: whole wheat pasta, bananas, peas, lentils
waving and clapping on demand
grace got her first tooth and a second one is poking through it is soooo cute! it sure took a long time.
Our beautiful niece Siena Alexis was born on May 28th- Todd's birthday of all days. We feel blessed and lucky to have her in our lives and can't wait to meet her. She will be the fourth Gemini in our Family! Dan and Dalia are doing well and are loving having their little girl at home. I knew it was going to be a girl and I am so happy that Grace will have another cousin close to her age.
Here are some pics from the last few months:

We call this her "dog ear" look
This is what has recently been happening to Grace. She goes from sitting to her stomach and then gets stuck!
I don't want to take a picture now!!! But, Mom has to take a picture of the very cute PJs that Uncle Tom and Aunt Shannon bought her.
Yummy kale

She got really tired of all that hard work and grabbed her bear to use as a pillow. Smart girl.

This was in Sonoma at Brian's birthday last weekend. Grace and Carter were playing together and then Alyssa joined in on the fun. Quite humorous to all adults involved. Maybe she was a little jealous that Grace was getting in on her man :)
