Ellie - 9 months

Ellie turned 9 months old on June 11th! I know I'm late with this update but I have a good reason... If you follow me on IG or Facebook you already know but I had emergency gallbladder removal surgery! I was so sick, like I couldn't keep water down sick. It turns out I had a ton of gallstones and one got stuck in my liver and I was really ill and ended up in the hospital for a few days just after Ellie turned 9m!



Weight:
15bs, 4oz ^12oz from her  8 month weight!

Length:
25.5", ^0" from her 8 month height!


Clothes:
6-12/9m/12m mostly. 6m sweaters still fit really well. Some 12m stuff is way too big but some fits okay. Just kinda hoping this stuff lasts the summer. Girlfriend has a crazy wardrobe and DOES NOT NEED ANYMORE CLOTHES. I have like 6 bags of old clothes to sort and decide what we are giving away and what we are trying to sell. I'm tired just thinking about it. 


Feedings:
Solids 3-4x a day, usually breakfast, lunch and dinner and occasionally a snack. She loves food and is finishing more and more all the time. She drinks water but insists on a regular cup. Hates all sippies and only wants to blow bubbles with straws. She's maintaining her BM consumption and I'm pumping 4x a day. We are doing okay supplywise. When I was sick and waiting for surgery my supply tanked pretty badly but we have a lot of freezer milk so we didn't have to worry too badly. The hospital was totally pumping friendly and they were able to store milk for Steve to pick up. They made sure all my meds were nursing mom friendly too!



Sleep:
7-7 with a wake up around 4-6 depending on the day. Some nights are better than others. Leap 6 is a nightmare, someone save us! Naps are hit or miss. Some days she naps SO well and then sleeps well and things are great, others not so much.


Personality:
Super friendly, she loves anyone who will talk to chat to her. She often yells or screeches at people or babies (or animals, or things that look like they have a face) to get their attention. She's generally a happy kid and just wants to interact. She is close to crawling but mostly goes backwards and spins in circles. She knows what she wants to do but hasn't put it together yet and gets frustrated when she can't get whats she wants. 



Loves:
  • Food
  • Being talked to
  • Daddy
  • Knocking over stacked items
  • Water
  • Seeing the cats

Hates:

  • Being left alone
  • When she can't see mom or dad
  • Being tired/cold/hungry
  • Getting dressed
  • Diaper changes
  • Not being mobile
