Isabella Turns 9 Months on Her First Easter

Thanks Easter Bunny!


Yesterday on Easter Sunday, Isabella turned 9 months old! Even though the weather was not a very spring like Easter day, we still enjoyed the day with the Martini family. It was a good day to reflect on what Easter really means and be thankful for the resurrection of Jesus Christ! We are so thankful to have a wonderful family and that Isabella is a happy and healthy little girl. We are truly blessed!!


Today, Isabella had her 9 month check-up at the doctor. The doctor is pleased with how well Isabella is growing and how much she is learning. Isabella now weighs 13 pounds 14 oz. Her height is now 25 3/4 inches. She is still only in the 5th percentile of the growth chart, but the doctor is pleased with the steady growth. Her brain is growing very well. It is in the 25% of the chart! She was just small to begin with, so now she is slowing creeping up the scale...but she has a big brain! Isabella also has a tooth that mommy can feel coming closer to the surface, so I'm guessing it has to be cutting through very, very soon. So far, she isn't too crabby from that. Isabella still isn't crawling, but she can scoot and she rolls very quickly to get to something she wants. Mom isn't too excited for the crawling to start anyway, because that means our daily lives will change. Like, how in the world will I go to the bathroom??....you know, things like that!!
