Skye’s 9 Month Check-Up

Skye’s nine month check-up was actually last week, but I’ve been spending too much time updating Twitter to focus on Majjix posts…lol

But, seriously, it’s so hard to believe that my little girl is almost a year old. And, she seems to be perfect in every way. She’s crawling around, waving hello, clapping, lifting herself up and getting into as much trouble as she possible can. The “trouble” part was inevitable considering her genetic make-up. Neither Skye nor Aidan were going to be able to escape that one!

At nine months, Skye weighs 17.5lbs, which puts her in the 50th percentile. She’s also 28″, which puts her in the 90th percentile for height. Of course, they can’t really predict height until they’re two but she is getting pretty up there.

I’ve got some video that I’m hoping to post soon. And, I admit we have been slacking on the updated photos. It seems so much easier to snap shots with the iPhone rather than lug around a hefty camera all the time! Since Skye isn’t big on strollers and still insists on being held, taking photos is especially difficult.

As for life in general with Skye, it’s getting much easier. We tried taking her off the Zantac but ended up going back on it. It seems she’s still got some reflux issues. And, she’s getting up once a night which is mostly my fault. I could let her soothe herself back to sleep, but I know she’ll want to wake up for real around 4am and that’s just not cool. I’m already addicted to Benadryl just to get 4-5 hours a sleep a night so I don’t need to be waking up that early!

Wherever we take her, she’s just as well behaved as she could be… I mean, that’s much different from Aidan who used to be a real screamer. But, Aidan never went for socket plugs and stereo equipment either so it’s a toss-up as to which one is preferred.

All in all, she’s a keeper… And, I can’t wait for her birthday! She really is our little princess, even though I said I would never say that and dress her in pink all the time.
