9 month check up

We had MaKenna's nine month well baby check on Thursday. She is doing very well. She weighs... I know everyone loves to hear what she weighs.. she is 21.4 she was 22 but with her being sick over Christmas she lost a few ounces. She is 29 inches long. The doc wanted to check her hemoglobin as breastfeed babies have a tendency to have a low hemoglobin. He was right hers was low...10.8 we have to start iron drops. These will possibly make her constipated which might be a good thing in her world because with her popping threw tooth number 7.. yes that is right number 7.. she has had some nasty nasty diapers! So I am ready for some solidness! Daycare is going so wonderfully well. I can't even tell ya! Daycare has taught her lots of fun things.. One of my favorites now is when you say hi MaKenna, she just a waves! Here is a little clip..

She is just about crawling. She has done it a few times and I don't think she really has figured oh.. if I do this I can get here and there! Which I guess is ok but looking forward to her moving I think!! She is starting to learn what No means. She has a tendency to get in to our entertainment center. Opens and slams the doors. So we holler and so NO NO and she looks at us smiles and laughs! Little turkey.. but she will stop after the like 4th NO.

I am trying to quit breastfeeding. I have alittle over 155 bags full! My doctor thinks that I will be just fine till the end. I didn't think that MaKenna was drinking enough milk but he claims 3-4 glasses a day for her is just fine. Which is about what she is drinking. But Let me tell ya.. the quitting part of breastfeeding is ABSOLUTELY NO FUN! it is very very painful! I look and feel like DOLLY PARTON! Hopefully within the next couple days it will slow down. Let's hope!
