Grown-up baby!

Well, that's what it feels like, anyway ... today was Annika's 9-month checkup! She's been out almost as long as she was in, can you believe that?

Her stats this morning say she's 27.5 inches tall, and weighs 19 pounds, 8 ounces. We've already traded up to a new carseat, although these numbers say she can ride in the baby bucket a little bit longer if we need her to, heh! No shots today, but there will be another round at her next checkup, soon after her first birthday.

In general, the doc says she's thriving and healthy and considerably ahead of the curve on her walking & crawling & standing. Yay, baby!
