What I can remember...

Okay, since I have been a slacker, I will do my best to collect the current stats from the brain that is currently racked witha severe case of "Momnesia."

At 9 months, Delaney Lin is weighing in at 19lbs 10oz. Her favorite foods are tofu (see the evidence in the photos!), blueberries and "Mama's Milk." She feeds herself two hands at a time with full handfuls. Half goes in her mouth, and half e
nds up on the floor as a bonus to Brady. Her only real word right now is Dada, although she thinks she can say Doggie and Brady (which sound suspiciously like Dada). As much as we encourage her to say Mama, it is usually met with a resounding....DADA!!! She also FINALLY got her first tooth last week, and took it like a champ.

Delaney is sitting and trying to crawl, but mostly ends up taking a swan dive to her belly that is followed by lots of yelling. She loves standing and will take supported steps. She will even give a little head bob and wiggle that I think is her version of dancing. My favorite part of the day is the morning, when I get a big fat smile as I enter her bedroom. We spend some quiet time nursing, then as soon as we finish, Delaney starts calling "Dada" in a really soft voice as we enter our bedroom to wake up Linwood. Again, I am not sure if she is calling Linwood or Brady (who is also in the bedroom), but I'll give this one to Linwood. Then we all snuggle in bed together before I leave them to watch Arthur. Linwood loves singing the theme song, "What a Wonderful Kind of Day," it is really adorable.
