Rory at 9 months

At 9 months, Rory has blossomed into a little spit fire, with a roar befitting her name and a smile that melts our hearts. She is clapping. She is almost crawling. She is eating pureed vegetables and meats, with a growing repetoire of bite-sized solids (pears, mangos, cheerioes). She weighs 16 pounds (10th percentile) and is 27.5 inches tall (75th percentile), so she is still showcasing her mommy's profile, as this picture depicts.
