Clara at 9 Months

Well, I am late again. But, at least I am doing it. Which is pretty good for the 3rd child, right?

Clara is such a joy. She is a happy girl. Although, she is definately not too keen on people she does not see on a daily basis. Needs a little time to warm up. Favorite place to be is in mommy's arms. She is crawling everywhere, pulling up alot and cruising a little. She had absolutely no teeth at 8 months, and now has 5 teeth coming in at various stages! She weighs 18 lb 8 oz (50%) and is 29" long (90%).
We left for our vacation to the beach the day she turned 9 months. She did great for the 15 hr drive there and back. But...she started running really high fevers toward the end of our trip. Her temps got up to 105.1 at its highest. But, she had absolutely no other symptoms. They discovered she has a urinary tract infection. She started on an antibiotic and has had no more fever, thank goodness. But, that was her first "sick visit" to the doctor in her whole life so far. Not bad.
