Avery - 9 Months

Three quarters of a year are gone and sweet baby Avery is already 9 months old.  Overall Avery is such a sweet and happy baby.  She is great, always being on the move and has taken quite well to car/Ergo/stroller naps.  She loves attention and looking at people's faces.

While she doesn't have any teeth yet, she is quite the chewer.  Her favorite chew toys are her silver rattle, books and anything hard.  Speaking of books, she loves to read.  She will insist on being read the same book over and over again.

She is wearing 9 month clothes and size 3 diapers.  She is a chunky little thing but it seems to be fading a little as she is moving more.  She is a great eater and so far we haven't found a food she doesn't like.  She eats all table food and typically has 5 bottles and 3-4 meals/snacks a day.

Avery has finally mastered sitting up.  While she will push herself up on all fours, she shows no real signs of crawling anytime soon.  Instead she prefers to roll to her desired destination.  She also has a back scoot move where she lays on her back, pushes her bottom in the air and uses her feet to push her body along the floor.

She has such a delight for her mom, dad, brothers and all those around her!

Her official stats are:
Height - 28" (53rd percentile)
Weight - 20lb 8oz (80th percentile)
Head Circumference - 46cm (93rd percentile)
