At her 9 month appointment, she weighed 20lbs. I honestly don't remember the length. I need to find the card they sent home with me. But she is 50th percentile for length and 75th percentile for head circumference.
Unfortunately, Brooke is not the best sleeper. I would like to say I have a perfect baby, but I can't. Not even close. She is really wearing me down when it comes to sleeping! We went to Az for 3 weeks. So, her schedule was off. Then she got sick. So her schedule was REALLY off. Then to top it off we kept staying at different places, so she had nothing familiar. Then we came back to Pitt. I thought I would make her "cry it out" until she figured it out. Well, that didn't work. She wouldn't stop crying at night. So I took her to the Dr. and find out she had a double ear infection. Woops! Now that made me feel like a terrible mom. To make a long story even longer, I have been up MANY MANY nights for HOURS at a time. Like 4 or more. It sucks. But now we have antibiotics. The pros- she is only waking up 1-2x night. (which is still 1-2x too many for me) The cons- the antibiotics are causing GI problems.
If its not one thing, its another.
Brooke is also LOVING baby food. I haven't found anything she won't eat. She even eats baby food meats. If you haven't tried them, you are really missing out. They smell like stinky feet and taste worse.
She is also climbing stairs. That is a little scary to me. But lots of fun for her.
She is napping 3x day. 45 minutes in the morning. 1.5 hours in the afternoon and 45 minutes in the evening.
Bedtime: 8:00pm-6:30/7:00am (with too many night time parties going on in her bedroom)
She is overall a REALLY happy baby and LOVES Peter. She chases him around and he chases her around. She loves his toys. And everything that shouldn't go in her mouth.
Happy 9 months Brookie!

She may be a terrible sleeper, but she is one pretty baby. At least she's nice to look at in the middle of the night, right? I love her smile, makes me melt!
