August 1st marked Isabelle's 9 month birthday. At her 9 month well visit, she weighed in at 16lbs 7oz and is 26 1/4in. long. As always, still tiny and petite, but very healthy and growing just right for her. This past month Isabelle has come a long way with eating solids. We've now worked our way up to 3 meals a day. She's also doing great with her formula as well, she'll have 4 bottles a day each 5-8 oz. When we first started incorporating meals into her daily schedule, I couldn't believe how much we had to fit into her day! She wakes up around 7:30 and goes to bed around 7:30 or 8:00 at night. So, basically, in 12 hours we had to squeeze in 3 meals, 4 bottles, 2-3 naps, and a bath! Not to mention, play time, chores around the house and running errands. At first this new schedule was pretty overwhelming, but now it's become second nature just like her previous schedules. We also learned how to be flexible enough to bring her food and bottles with us to eat on the go. She learned a couple new tricks this past month. When we say "how big's Isabelle?" she lifts her hands in the air while we say "SO big!" She also has been clapping almost constantly. I'm really loving the age she is right now, she's so much fun and has such a personality. We're so thankful for our precious baby girl!
