8 Month Check Up



Brianna's doctor wanted to do an 8 month check up instead of a 9 month check up because we weren't caught up on vaccinations. So, here are her stats:
16 lbs 8 oz (25th percentile)
26 inches long (10th percentile)
(I can't remember her head circumference but it was the 70TH PERCENTILE) She's not exactly symetrical :)
We have quite the little shorty on our hands! But, we think she's perfect!
Brianna has learned to give high fives this week. She is learning to clap and has started waving to people! She was frustrated at the doctor's office when she kept waving to this man who was reading a book. He didn't respond because he couldn't see her...but she kept waving waiting for some kind of response! She finally gave up when another lady come up to play with her.
Brianna loves to stand, especially at the gate and toy in these pictures! She tries to cruise along the gate, but doesn't get far. She is really focusing on crawling now too, but she's a little too bottom heavy! She will get onto her hands and knees and end up launching her self into a belly flop instead of crawling. She hurt herself doing this a few times today. She ends up rolling and pivoting to get to things. She's also getting frustrated because she wants to get into a sitting position from her stomach. She's getting close, but needs help! She is getting so mobile...she's hard to keep still!
