9 Months Old!

Lelaina is now 9 months old. She is getting so big! She weighs about 21 lbs! She's really moving around now. She rolls all over the place and is very close to crawling. She also sits very well on her own. Her new tricks in the past few months include clapping and saying "da da da da." She loves her brother - she watches him and follows him all over the room. Lelaina has also started to eat real food - she seems to prefer this over baby food. Her favorite food is Cheerios - it's almost as if she has an addiction to Cheerios. Last night she had her first french fries and loved them! Lelaina also loved Christmas and her new toys. Although, she seemed to have more fun watching Cosimo play with his toys.

On 10/12/12, Lelaina turned 6 months old. She is getting so big! Her 6 month stats: 18lbs4oz (82% for weight), 25 inches (32% for height), and 67% for head circumference She's rolling all over the place and makes it all the way across the floor. She's learning how to sit on her own, but it's a work in progress. She's eating all the solids now and has been through the fruits and vegetables. She seems to like all the foods, but isn't as great of an eater as her brother. She smiles all the time and seems like the happiest baby in the world. She loves her brother and watches him all over the place. We think she is teething and has been a little cranky the past few nights. But, she is sleeping better and sleeps most nights 9-10 hours.
