Watch Me Grow - Kennedy - 7 Mon

Sorry I'm so far behind in posting pictures. Between moving and visiting friends I'm so far behind in everything!!! I did want to at least get Kennedy's 7 month Duck picture up here. I will get pics from our visit to Tennessee and our last week in DC up here as soon as I can!

1 Week - November 2009

I know I usually post these pics seperately but it's all I can do to get one post up today. lol :) I think it was Reagan's 11 month pictures where I really started having trouble because she was all over the bed. Well Kennedy is all over the place at 7 mon!!! So all over the place, in fact, I couldn't even snap that many pictures of her being all over the place for fear of her falling off the bed. lol ;)

I'm so funny!!!

And pretty precious too!

Kennedy is one busy little girl! She is crawling all over the place. She also discovered she can pull up on things all on her own. Since the weekend she has even been letting go and attempting to stand all on her own!!! She only makes it for a few seconds but I can't believe she's even trying it already. Yesterday she even let go of the coffee table and grabbed for the couch. They're pretty close together but she successfully manuevered between the two objects and remained standing. She is one on the go baby!

As for eating Kennedy has decided she is not at all interested in baby food... She likes any real people food we'll give her but she doesn't want anything to do with baby cereal or pureed food. At her 6 month checkup the doctor said that was fine except that at about 6 months babies iron levels start to drop and the primary way they get their iron is through baby cereal. As such we're supposed to be careful about making sure Kennedy is eating as many Cheerios as she wants to help boost her iron levels. She also loves to drink out of a cup or use a sippy. No bottles for this baby she's pretty determined she's a big girl already!

Back to her checkup - she's doing great. She's in the 90th percentile for height and in the 75th percentile for weight at 7lbs 14ozs. Her head circumferance was in the 50th percentile so she's all over the place (that seems to be the theme of this post). She doesn't look disproportionate to me but maybe that's because I see her everyday. The doctor also said that sometimes the measuring can be a bit off from person to person so as long as she doesn't veer wildly out of the norm and mostly stays in the same growth progression for each of the measurements individually their fine with it.

Kennedy is still super smiley and loves attention from everyone. It literally takes nothing to get her smiling. She is such a sweet sweet baby! We love you Missy K! :)
