Happy 9 months. 1:45pm

Alot of preemie moms that I know celebrate two birthday's with their baby's..one
is the actual birthday..so today is Grace's "actual" 9 month old birthday!
And the other is when they should've been born, so this past Monday, was her
"corrected age" birthday at 6 months. 

So, here she is.. Happy 9 months, my love!


"Uncle" Dougie is here from Australia..Uncle Doug is Ross brother; this is his first time holding Grace.  He saw her back in Maine in November..so he was happy to see her yesterday & hold her.  Nice pic, "Uncle" Dougie!!

Auntie Heather & the kids visited us yesterday.  And Heather was happy to hold Gracie without tugging or having to carry anything too.  What a blessing!

OT came today!! And Grace did GREAT!! She laid on her belly for quite a number of minutes..just laid there, with her binky (of course)

9 months stats:
weight: (we'll officially get it tomorrow)
height:  25"
drinking:  Similiac Neosure via g-tube 35-40ml's/hour a day
sizes:  3-6 month tops; 6 mo pj's with feet (she's very long/tall) & 3 mo bottoms
eating/trying new foods:  pureed peas as of yesterday (she LOVES them!), apples & pears (fruit pureed), pureed sweet potatoe, and oatmeal (about 2 tsp/day 1-2x's a day)

Grace loves music. Loves to be sung & read too.  Loves the bath. Loves to snuggle.
Loves her binky!

Her legs are always kicking around.  She loves when her cousins come over to play; and her friend, Abby "sudo cousin" holds her!




Thanks for reading!
Love,
pattie & gary, Gracie & max
