Happy 9 Months, Elinor!

Elinor is 9 months today! She is healthy, happy and LARGE! Here are some of her stats:

Weight: 22 pounds even, 91%
Height: 30 inches, 95%
Head Circumference: 46.5 inches, 95%

Needless to say, she is large. She is wearing size 4 diapers (and has even had quite a few "explosions" in those). She is wearing mostly 18 month clothing.

Elinor likes:

  • Her mom's water bottle (yes, she can get water out of the camelback valve)
  • Outside
  • Going on walks
  • Screaming and yelling (not crying, just making loud noises)
  • Eating anything electronic
  • Eating big people food (she WON'T eat baby food)
  • Clapping
  • Waving, especially to Grandma and Grandpa Rowberry on the webcam
  • Laughing
  • Making noise by hitting things against the table
  • Standing by herself
  • Baths
Elinor DOESN'T like:
  • Baby food
  • Taking naps
  • Being held
  • Staying out of the bathroom
  • Sitting still to get her diaper changed
  • Mom moving her away from whatever she is destroying
  • Wearing shoes
  • Getting sunscreen slathered on
  • Being in her carseat
We definitely love you, Elinor!
