Skinny girl

Jordan had her 9 month old check up today… and it turns out that she isn’t gaining much wieght lately. She’s holding at 18 pounds… And that moves her down from the 50th percentile to the 30th. But her height went from 50th to 70th! So she’s tall and skinny. That’s not quite worrisome, but the doctor wants a recheck on weight in 6 weeks. In that time, we’re going to up her carbs and I’m going to try to boost that weight.

She’s obviously doing really well.

Funniest thing that I haven’t caught on camera yet: When Jordan sees me, she starts scooting after me. Then she’ll pound her hand into her chest like she’s saying: PLEASE!! So I let her move even closer to me (with more chest pounding pleases)… And help guide her into standing up. It’s going to be a slow, but methodical process in teaching her how to get up on her own. But wow… She’s actually mobile. It isn’t efficient, but she’s going places and I’m proud of that.
