Clean bill of health.

I took Laila to her 9 month check up today. We couldn't of asked for a healthier baby. She weighed in at 21 lbs. 10 oz. and 30 1/2 inches long. Still practically off the charts and in the 97 percentile. Poor bubs had two shots today, the hepitis and flu shot. She also had her little toe pricked to check her iron level. She did not like that too much. That is the worst, hearing her scream from pain. The doctor gave her a clean bill of health once again. Laila is doing everything and more from what babies normally do at this age. She is eating most everything she is aloud to. We go back when Laila turns a year! That's three months away! I can't believe it. She has been with us for the same amount of time I carried her. It's so amazing!

a talker and a dancer.

Laila's vocabulary consists of a good five words. Daddy, mama, baba, baby, and Laila. She also makes little noises like "goa, goa, goa", pats her lips together to make a popping sound, and screams when she gets excited. I am still trying to figure out some words she is trying to say. She talks all day long. You can't keep her quiet. She will look at me and say something and i have no idea what she just said, but it cracks me up. I wouldn't be surprised if she says "no" to me one day. I am telling her no about a hundred times a day now that she is crawling all over the house. She wants to get into everything! But mostly the stuff that's not hers. I say "No No Laila", she turns around and gives me a look then laughs. What a little ham! She is about to stand on her own. She lifts one leg up and sits on it, then bounce up and down. I can turn on music and she goes crazy! She expecially loves the hot dog dance and special agent oso's three special steps. She is too stinkin' cute!!!
