9 months old today

I can't believe in three short months we will be celebrating Isabella's first birthday! I can't decide whether the last nine months have gone fast or slow - it seems like we have had her forever yet it also seems like not that long ago when she was a newborn. I'm guessing babies go through a big growth spurt around nine months because she is hungry ALL the time right now. I can tell she has grown too, her 3-6 month clothes are finally getting too small! Maybe she'll start catching up. I'll be interested to see how big she is at her dr.'s appt. next week, they always go by her adjusted age. Since she was a preemie, they say she is developmentally a 7 month old. She has also started a new thing- she's very clingy - which makes it somewhat of a challenge to just go to the bathroom! I know my niece is like that too, so it must be a phase. (And it's kind of nice to think that she doesn't want to be away from me) :)
