Nine Month Update

Today we went to the doctor for Noah's nine month checkup. He now weighs 22 pounds, 5 ounces (75%) and is 31 inches tall (97%). The doctor said that he wasn't ready to project Noah's future height, but was willing to say that Noah will not be a short man! He also suggested that we start Noah on table foods... whatever we are eating, just smashed up a little bit. We tried that tonight with grilled chicken and asparagus and he LOVED it. He was grabbing it by the handful and shoving it in his mouth. It was a pretty messy dinner, but he was happy. It should make for a great first Thanksgiving for Noah. He also got the flu shot today so hopefully we can prevent him from getting sick this winter. Our next visit is for his 1 year appointment- only 2.5 months away! Can you believe it?
