For those who don't see Marin enough to know her stats here you go

So Marin had her 9 month check up, let me tell you it has been some the most fun I have had in 9 months. Anyway she went to the doctor and found out my daughter is tall and skinny, like her Daddy. She is 30 inches long, that puts her in the 98 percentile. Yep she is long.She got her shots before the doctor came in, lucky girl, however I had to laugh at her, okay so not laugh but chuckle maybe is the proper word, anyway. She got her foot poked to check her iron and she grunted at the nurse and then was so interested in her my little pony band aide that the poke didn't matter. Then came her shots, she jumped when she got poked and then fussed is probably a good way to describe it and then I picked her up and we were just fine. Smiling and talking to the nurse. What a champ.
Her weight, oh her weight. She has been on a constant upswing like everything else however she got an ear infection about a week before her appointment and her weight dipped down a lot so as the doctor put it "she is on the mend" which i guess means she is just going to get heavy quickly. Dang it. It's okay she is very cute. Anyway she weighs 19 pounds 10 ounces

Overall our baby is growing and getting to be more and more fun everyday. Lindsey I hope the title is a little better for you! Thanks for letting me know you look daily.

Wow, she is long. But totally adorable. I wonder what Raelie is now as far as her measurements go, I have to take her in for her check up. You seem like you are such a good mom. I bet you just love it. Life is sure great isn't it. Thanks for your comments on my blog.
