My Favorite Subject

Just thought it was time for an update on Zoe and some of her adventures. She is now 9 months old and weighs in at 16.5 pounds and is 28" tall. She is in the 25th percentile for her weight and 50th -75th percentile for her height. Based on her parents I thought this would be reversed. She has begun standing on her own and pushing her toys across the floor while walking. Maybe running behind her toys would be a better term--she can definitely move. Thankfully she hasn't learned how yet, but she tries to climb over the baby gates. Some of her favorite places to play are in the dishwasher, the refrigerator, the Tupperware drawer, etc. She loves to feed herself, especially bananas. They squish and are wonderful to put in your hair! And it often means she gets a bath which she loves-or just her face washed which she hates.
She still has the milk allergy, but I don't think its nearly as bad anymore. The church nursery accidentally gave her cheese goldfish and although she got a little fussy, it didn't last too long. She has a very sensitive stomach though and often gets irritable whenever we try a new food. Or maybe she is just trying to get out of eating her vegetables! Since she is eating solid foods now, its hard to know if its what I ate or what she ate. She only has one tooth, but I think a second one may be coming in. She loves to torment the dog, so we finally put him in one area of the house and Zoe in the other. He probably wouldn't have any hair left otherwise. Below are a few pictures of her latest escapades.
