At your nine month check up today you weighed in at a whopping 17 pounds (10th percentile) and measured at 28 inches tall (40th percentile). You have six teeth now: two on bottom and four on top. This means you are still on the skinny side compared to most babies but the doctor was very happy with your growth and your milestones. You even got to show off your clapping skills. Mommy and Daddy got the go-ahead to start feeding you finger food bites, and more and more from the foods that we are eating. He recommended we try noodles with marinara sauce…we’re just not sure if we want to be cleaning up tomato sauce from that many places yet.
