Nine Month Check-up

Katherine had her nine month check-up today.

She is 19 pounds and 9 ounces (60th percentile).
She is 265 inches long (25th percentile).
Her head is 46 cm (90th percentile).

The doctor was disappointed that she isn’t crawling yet.  Then he had her sit and then stand.  Then he realized she wasn’t crawling because (as he put it) she is a Princess.  It isn’t that she isn’t physically capable – she just chooses not to.  She would rather fuss and have us get her what she wants or move her where she wants to go.  Her back and legs are very strong.  (They have to be to hold up that huge melon head!)
