Lily is officially nine months old and four months out from surgery. She is doing amazingly well. She still has a murmur, but her heart rate is good and she is eating and growing. She doesn't go back to the cardiologist until August. She weighs 19 pounds and 4 ounces which is 65% for her age, is 27 inches long which is 25% for her age and her head is in the 75% for her age. She loves food, restaurants, and will put anything in her mouth. She still has no teeth, but knows how to gum finger foods. She rolls everywhere, she tries to crawl, but being so heavy hinders her so she ends up getting frustrated and ends up rolling to get there. She loves her walker and tolerates the exersaucer. She has enjoyed her summer of watching her sister and friends in the pool and will get in as long as you hold on to her - no floats please. Lily waves Hello and Bye and she says Ba for her bottle. Grace is still her favorite person and thinks that she tells the best jokes. Unfotunately the jokes are not easily understood by anyone over the age of six, go figure. Lily loves to give hugs and has started to reach for people she knows. We are working on the self soothing, she doesn't like pacifiers, doesn't suck her thumb or fingers - We hope by the end of the summer she is able to put herself to sleep. We'll see. For now we will keep wearing her out so that she falls asleep quickly and hopefully sleeps through the night.
What is this Mama?

There is that thing again.
CHEESE!
