Wow. Olivia is 9 months old today. At this time 9 months ago, I was still in L&D waiting to be moved to MIU, I couldn't feel my legs yet from the epidural, well, my left leg anyway, and I was finally getting something to eat after not having eaten anything solid for about 24 hours. A few hours later I was in MIU and going to sleep. That was a rough day, but it was so worth it to hold my beautiful baby girl in my arms finally. I loved that I could cuddle and hold her without her wiggling all over the place. I still love to hold and cuddle her, but she loves to wiggle. She's getting to the point more though that she likes to cuddle for a minute or two at a time. More if I get her right when she's woken up from her nap. She's my precious girl, and I love her so much.
The other night we got KFC/A&W for dinner, I had the KFC and Rich had A&W, and Livvy was coming over trying to grab it. So I gave her a little piece of my biscuit, and she really liked it, so I gave her a little more. When I gave her a taste of potatoes she made a face and just shoved them out of her mouth with her tongue.
ETA: At the checkup the next day, Livvy weighed in at just over 17 lbs, which actually put her back down into the 25th percentile. Doctor wasn't worried about that since she's obviously very active, she's burning a lot of calories. Her height was 27 1/2 inches, which was right on the 50th percentile, and her head also measured on the 50th. She can now stand for several seconds on her own. The longest I've actually seen is about 10 seconds, and she was holding her brush.
