We already knew that she was perfect, but Dr. F. confirmed it this morning at her nine month check up.&#160; Those were his words\u2026&quot;she&#8217;s perfect&quot;!&#160; Here are her nine month stats:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Height<\/strong> \u2013 27 inches, up 7 inches from birth.&#160; Pops, I think we have a ball player on our hands.&#160; She has always been in the &quot;above average&quot; category for height.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weight<\/strong> \u2013 17lbs 5oz, up almost 10 pounds from birth (she was 7lbs 7oz in the hospital).&#160; This has been an up and down battle with us, but she is right at the 25th percentile.&#160; Dr. F. says that is great, so we will take it!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Head<\/strong> \u2013 43.5cm\u2026we are moving on up.&#160; Her head has actually just made it on the average growth curve, she has always been below average in this category.<\/p>\n<p>MLK has grown so much in these past nine months, I can&#8217;t believe she is only 3 months away from her first birthday!&#160; She has accomplished so much.&#160; Here are a few of her latest tricks.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>MLK can crawl.&#160; If you have followed this blog at all you already knew that, but she is really moving these days.&#160; All over the place. <\/li>\n<li>Pulling up.&#160; Again, she has been doing this for some time now, but has really perfected it in the last few weeks.<\/li>\n<li>Standing on her own for around 20 seconds.&#160; It won&#8217;t be long now before she is walking.<\/li>\n<li>Feeding herself.&#160; She actually prefers this method much more than us feeding her.&#160; She uses her hands (we will work on manners later) and makes a big mess, but she is doing great.<\/li>\n<li>One tooth and one more on the way.&#160; This has caused quite the battle at night time, but we are managing.<\/li>\n<li>Mimicking.&#160; She is at a really fun age right now because she tries to do everything we do.&#160; If we click our tongue, she attempts to click hers.&#160; If we wave our arms around, she will do the same.&#160; It is so cute!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/kickert.info\/beth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/2010January100thday075.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-bottom: 0px;

A ton for us anyway.&#160; We got between 6 and 8 inches.&#160; It was beautiful.&#160; MLK wasn&#8217;t a huge fan of the snow, but really all she can do at this point is sit in it.&#160; Maybe next year.&#160; Here are a few pictures from our snow adventures, but please excuse her &quot;snow suit&quot;.&#160; It is a Snoopy Halloween costume and it was the warmest thing we could find for her.&#160; She showed a little resemblance to Randy from <em>A Christmas Story<\/em>, but at least she was warm!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kickert.info\/beth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/2010January100thday060.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-bottom: 0px;
