Mara went in for her 9 month check up today!  The doctor is very impressed with her growth and said she looks fantastic.

Here are her stats:

Head circumference: 45.3 cm (75-90th percentile)

Weight: 18 pounds 9 ounces (50th percentile)

Height: 28 1/4 inches (75th percentile)

She's grown almost 10 inches since she was born...amazing!  She continues to be adorable, of course.  She is pulling up to a standing position and starting to cruise around the furniture.  Last night she pulled up on me while I was sitting on the floor and let go and stood on her own for 3 full seconds.  We don't think she meant to do it, but I think she will be walking before she is a year old.  She loves eating solid foods and will eat just about everything.  She says, "mama" "dada" "nana" and other babbling sounds.  She loves Storm, but her best friend is Reese.  She isn't the best sleeper on record, but she does okay.  Before we know it, it will November and we will be celebrating her first birthday!
