As you can see, Lexie is getting really good at standing up and getting around! She wore her Atlanta Falcons dress to church today (below is a picture of her with her furry hat, which she left on for a little while after coming inside).
She is getting smarter and smarter; it's like she gains new skills and abilities every day! We were saying that it seems like she goes to bed thinking about what she's going to do the next day and then wakes up doing something she's never done before without even thinking about it!
As many of you know, she had her nine month appointment this week; 18 pounds, 5 ounces (40th percentile) and 28 inches (70th percentile). The doctor was amazed at some of the things she is able to do at her age and said she is so advanced in some of the social things that we will "have our hands full", but we already knew that! Her caretakers at childcare have also been amazed at her memory - they said they've never seen a baby who remembers where they are going when they take her in a certain direction before!
She got invited to her first birthday party this week (another Lexy) and it is causing us to have to start thinking about what we will do to celebrate her first birthday. Only three months away! It is hard to believe she is growing up so quickly!
