Because we were in Houston for the summer we missed Ave's six month check-up. So when we got back we made an appointment asap to see where she was. It had been four months since we knew her weight, height, ect! At 8 months old Ave is 25 and 1/4 inches tall, that is in the fifth percentile, meaning 95% of kids her age are taller. Big surprise right?! And her weight is now 15 lbs 7 oz, which is in the 10th percentile. However, her head circumference has stayed at a constant 30th percentile so according to the doctor she is right where she needs to be.
THINGS AVE HAS ACCOMPLISHED:
* Pulls herself up to standing position from sitting.
* Picks up tiny objects with any part of thumb and finger.
* Walks holding on to furniture.
* Stands alone momentarily.
* Understands the word NO (but does not always obey it).
* Looks for dropped or hidden objects.
* Objects if you try to take a toy away.
*Works to get a toy that is out of reach.
* Can pass objects from hand to hand.

I just love that adorable little girl! One thing the doctor forgot to measure was how smart she is---she'd definitely make the 110th percentile in that area! Give her kisses from her Auntie Shi. :)
