Yesterday was Caden's 9 month doctor's visit. I was excited but nervous...it's usually a pretty dramatic event!
I thought I'd write Caden's stats:
Age: 9 months 1 week & 1 day
Weight: 20# 10oz (50th percentile)
Length: 29" (72nd percentile)
Head circ: 46.3 cm (77th percentile)
Milestones: Crawling, pulling up, cruising (2 days ago - yay!!!)
Finger food: Melon, Wholegrain bread, puffs, grapes, avocado.
New foods this month: Cauliflower, broccoli, brussels sprouts, chicken, turkey, cottage cheese, cheddar, egg yolks & all of the above, except melon.
Teeth: None!
He had a skin test (can't remember for what disease) and the baby flu shot. I felt it would be wise to get it, with him being exposed to other children in the church nursery and all. We also got a blood draw to check iron levels and some other things. It is routine for my doctor's office, but no one else I know with a baby had this done....so I wasn't too sure about it. But Cade was a trooper! He did great - after the initial crying bout he calmed right down.
A few days I also went to get my car seat checked by an installation tech. I got a gold star! LOL. He said I had it put in perfectly, but he reinstalled it to get it really tight. I recommend getting it done, it's free and you couldn't get your car seat put in so well by yourself! And he was very happy about continuing to rear face....and with the brand of car seat I have. He said he tells everyone to keep their kids rear facing as long as possible, it's sooo much safer.
Well that's it for now, tonight is Halloween and there is a Trunk or Treat event at my church. Caden is going as a cow! =]

"Trunk or treat"
'Trunk'? Did you mean to say that or was it a typo? I'm intrigued about the trunks.
ha ha yes I meant "trunk". We do a halloween alternative event at our church. Basically we have a lot of cars lined up with their boots open. Each car boot is decorated differently, and kids go through the maze of cars stopping at each one for candy.
