Today Anna Claire visited Dr. Childer's for her 9 month check up, just a couple of weeks past the 9 month mark. She is the picture of health! We will have a follow up renal ultrasound at Central Baptist soon to check her left kidney and hopefully put any concern to rest once and for all. We hope to have an appointment scheduled for next week.
Dr. Childer's gave me permission to fully abandon pureed foods since she is refusing them. She does an excellent job of feeding herself and is feasting on fresh fruits and veggies and has tried many new things as well like whole grain cheerios, waffles, pancakes,french toast, scrambled eggs, pasta, toast, chicken, ground beef, cheese etc. She hasn't yet turned down any fruit or veggie that I have offered to her, but doesn't seem to love the texture of yogurt or applesauce. He suggested that I try some fish in addition to turkey, chicken and beef and just advised that we stay away from honey, shell fish and peanut butter until closer to 2. I am anxious to try strawberries, but will wait until the 1-year mark. It will be party time soon!
Stats:
29.25 inches (92%)
17 lbs, 14 oz (27%)
She is a string bean! She is crawling and pulling up and generally getting into everything! Hard to believe she could be walking in the next couple of months. Yikes.

Why is this baby only in the 27% of weight? Feed her some oatmeal! Otherwise, am glad to hear that she's doing so well.
I was just thinking that she was getting so tall! Wonderful news! Can't wait for y'all to visit!
