It's been waaayyy tooooo looong!

Bad mom. Oh, well... So much has appetite this month! Moira now has eight teeth and two words! She has her second cold right now probably picked it up at Sophia's fifth birthday party, there were lots of children touching the pretty baby! Moira says all done (a da) very consistently when she is done eating or done sleeping or if she wants to be done in the car or done doing something she doesn't want to do... on the way down to Iowa with Kieran, grandma C, and I she would cry and fuss and then say "aa da, a da"... it was so cute and sooo sad! She also says hi'ya when she waves (usually), sometimes it's when she is waving bye bye, lately she hasn't been much about waving, but when she does, she usually says hi'ya! She also says da da da da, but It's not really dada, because it is still mostly a babble. We went to the doctor on the 7th for her nine month check up and everything is looking great. Doctor's only concern is her lack of weight gain, but with lots of internet reading and talking to my mom and Shannon I am not worried. She is willingly of her milestones and eats a ton, she's just small and always has been. Right now she weighs 16lbs 5 oz (5%) and is 27-1/2" long (40%). The nice thing about her staying small is she is still in her 3-6 mo clothes that she wore last winter, so we are so set with clothing! Moira is a great speed crawler now, but her favorite mode of transportation (other than riding on mom in the hip hammock or back pack) is pulling herself up and walking on furniture. She gets a new bump or bruise a few times a week, she's getting really good at the hold-your-breath- and-don't-cry-for-30-seconds- cry... but she is easily comforted most of the time. We haven't added many new foods because she has so many in her diet. We've added Wheat germ which gets added to her tofu and veggie at dinner and cheese, she loves cheese, she laughs at the bag of cheese when we bring it out of the fridge. Cheese is about the only thing she is interested in self feeding lately which is kind of frustrating, just because she screams until her food is ready even if there is cut up fruit or veggies on her tray... so she gets a lot fo cheese.
We have to go pick up Kieran at school... I will post some pictures soon.
