Marissa seems to be doing much better with the no soy/dairy diet. We hope she outgrows the allergy, but the doctor thinks she is a bit old so she may not. We will see. It is so nice to see her not crying all the time. She is so smiley now and I can tell she is much better.
Marissa is pulling up on everything now. She loves to be up on her feet. She is so fast crawling now and is instantly into the fridge, dishwasher or anywhere she is not supposed to be. The girls still love to take baths or anything together. They giggle and play non-stop.
Marissa has no interest in holding her own cup or picking up her own food. We are working on encouraging it. Right now, she is happy just having someone tend to her every need- HA.
She is wearing clothes 9m-12 years. She is able to still wear Kay's clothes from when she was a year- 18 months.
Marissa still has just two small teeth on the bottom. I keep thinking she will get a new one soon. She laughs all the time (especially now that she is feeling better). She loves to wave bye bye to everyone. She does it on command now. We say bye bye and she waves. When we say 'NO', she promptly looks up and shakes her head side to side. She claps when we say 'yay'. She quickly turns when anyone says her name. She likes to be within sight of someone in the family. If we all leave the room she starts crying and crawls as fast as she can to get to one of us. She can find the tiniest speck of dirt on the floor. She is not picking things up and eating them yet. I am sure it will only be a matter of time. She will pick up the dirt and inspect it for several minutes.
On a good night she sleeps from 7 pm- 6 am. She still struggles to stay up until 7 pm on school nights because she is not sleeping well at school. On nights that her tummy hurts she is up most of the night crying in pain. Thankfully, we are getting less and less of those nights.
Marissa at 9 months:
Weight: 17 lbs 3 oz- 29%
Height: 28 inches- 56%
Head: 44.25 cm- 57%
