9 month checkup

Itty bitty Jocelyn had her 9 month check up and is quite small! It was a little surprising. So her head circumference is still on track at 50th percentile. Otherwise, she weighed 15 lbs 3 oz, which is less than the 10th percentile (which is her usual perc.). Her doctor said he's not worried because it's normal for babies to lose weight at this age because they're getting more active. Then she was 28 inches long which was less than 75th percentile,  where she has been in the 90th percentile for height in the past. Kinda strange. Her doctor made it seem like maybe the nurse got an off measurement, it was a different nurse than we usually see and he said something like, some nurses do it different. Plus she did the head measurement twice because the first time it looked off, so I wouldn't be surprised if the length was also off. If her height is low again next time he said he might worry, but he doesn't worry if it happens once.

So Jocelyn is just tiny for now, but she's happy and healthy!

She loves walking and running around. She's done a few really cute things the past few days. We said some prayers and at the end said "amen" and she said, "ah-ah" with us. And then at primary music time the chorister was leading the music and Jocelyn was staring at her so hard, concentrating, and waving her hand, Trevor said she was doing it almost on beat too. So stinking cute!

She took this selfie today on her own.
