9 months old

Hard to believe Maisie turned 9 months old last week. Today she had her 9 month check up and everything is going according to plan....The stats:
Height: 29 inches (95th percentile)
Weight: 19 lbs 7 oz (50-75the percentile)
Head circumference: 17 inches (50-75th percentile)

We are also enjoying having our happy little girl back after the triple-whammy of the holiday ear infection, the first two teeth right after new years and then 3-4 days of virus.

Here she is hanging in the exersaucer watching dad pull weeds. Got to love "winter" in Houston:


And if you didn't believe she was daddy's little girl before, this ought to convince you:


Our posting has certainly slowed down now that we're back at work after the holidays, but here are some pictures to tide you over (the whole set from the holidays). Enjoy!

Date night!

The last couple of weeks have been....well...challenging. Maisie got sick again, most likely with a virus of some kind, and sleep has come at a premium for all of us.

So when we got a chance to get out of the house and go to a Rockets game, we found a babysitter as fast as we could. Even better, we were in a suite with free food and beer (YAY BEER!!) and we got to sit courtside for a quarter.

Here are a few shots from the game:









And for those of you who only come to this blog to see pics of Maisie (you know who you are), here's a shot of her learning how to clap with her Nanna. :)

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Maisie may be only 9 months old, but she already knows how to party.

Happy New Year to you all!
Love, Michele, Brian and Maisie
