Camille had her 9 month old checkup today and to our surprise- no shots!!!! That made for a very happy baby (and mommy)!
Camille is slow going on the weight gain. She weighed in at 15lbs 9oz (6%). Dr. Willey said it is normal for the weight gain to begin to slow as they become more mobile- and we are there! Her height is right under 27" (24%) so that was about an inch longer than last visit which shows she is in line with the average growth trend. Her head was a whopping 17 3/8" (56%)! No wonder her development is still on track- she's got a huge brain :)
The funniest part of the doctor's visit was when we were in the waiting room. They have two huge fish aquariums. In the past, Camille hasn't taken too much notice to these, but she zoned in today. She was watching the fish swim back and forth for awhile, but then she decided to "catch" the fish. She was moving her hands frantically trying to get a hold of one. I kept knocking on the glass trying to show her that she wouldn't be able to grab them. She didn't get it and continued to follow them with her hands, opening and closing her palms in hopes of getting one in her grip. After a few minutes, she banged hard on the glass in frustration. It probably didn't help that I was laughing this entire time as this was quite a site to see.
No more checkups until the 1yr mark!!
