My cutie pie

She is getting so big too quick!

Here's how big/or small Evy was at her nine month check up that she passed with flying colors this morning:

Length:  79th percentile at 28.6 in

Weight:  9th percentile at 16 lbs 10 oz

Head:  15th percentile

Evy loves feeding herself real people food.  Here she is eating green beans and a graham cracker.

Crawling around everywhere is her new hobby.  If mommy leaves the room, she loves that she now has the ability to follow me. :)  Now, I have two shadows!

I usually find Evy sitting up playing and talking to herself after nap times and in the morning.  You can see Will's hands on the side of the crib...He loves going in to get her with me!

we got a crawler!

 Hard to believe she is 9 months!  Here are her 9 month chair pics.

some more flattering pictures:)

My second allergic child... A very scary night for all.

We rushed Evy to the closest ER on Friday night when her lips started to show a small blister that very quickly proceeded to swell into this not so attractive look.  Her whole is swollen below.  Only three weeks ago, Evy had an episode of eye swelling, itching, and rash following a nursing session after mom had eaten several peanut butter chocolate treats.  The most recent reaction below was much more drastic and frightening.  We are in the process of scheduling an appointment with my son's allergist/pulmonologist, Dr. Leickly, to help narrow down a cause if she is even old enough to allergy test. 

Thank you for your prayers!

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas!
