More Cake...

Sunday we went to the Knutson household in Waukesha to celebrate Kelsie's Confirmation. It was a nice little gathering. Rowan loved the frosting that Grandma Julie was sharing with her! Too bad the weather wasn't better for them, but there was plenty of room between the house and the garage!

More Presents...

for Uncle Mitch!

We had dinner Saturday night for Mitchell's birthday. Rowan helped him open his gifts, and she even had some ice cream cake too. She was full of her hammy smiles! We got to see Grandma Simonson as well! She got a kick out of Rowan!

March for Babies 2009...

Well, we decided not to attend the walk after all, and by the sounds of it, it was a good decision. It doesn't sound like much walking got accomplished because it stormed right after the walk started. But either way, we supported our team financially which is the important part. And I work my shirt to work Friday night and got many many compliments on it. The shirt is pink, but I made the pictures black and white because I was looking a bit rough after working all night.

Since it is hard to read, the front said, I Love Saving Babies! Rowan's t-shirt kept getting stuck on her budda belly, so it was difficult to read. It was still super cute!

Shopping with Dad...

So apparently this is what happens when it is 80 degrees outside and Rowan spends the day with her dad. Mom wakes up to a new toy for Rowan! Dad took Rowan shopping and they got a Water Table for the yard, and even some new shoes! I don't ever want to hear that I buy her too many pairs of shoes. Ed commented on how her shoes didn't match her outfit last week, and I said that those were the only ones she had, that fit her. So he decided to buy her some white tennies, they are cute. He did a good job. This is also Rowan's new smile. She scrunches her nose and shows all her teeth. She is such a ham!

Rowan's New Friend...

Rowan found a new friend yesterday in our guest bedroom. I think it was the first time she noticed the mirrored dressers. So she was standing in front of them smiling at herself, she even tried to give her friend on the other side a kiss. Super cute!

9 Month Stats...

Rowan was at the doctor today for her 9 month check up.

Finally, no shots this time. We are all up to date, so we get one visit off. 12 Months will be another story, sorry honey!

Rowan now weighs 18 pounds 7 Ounces (50th percentile)
She is 29 inches long (90th percentile)
I don't remember her head measurement, but she is in the 50th percentile. I asked them to write it down for me, because every hat I try on her that is 6-12 months, is huge. So I was curious if her head was small. But it isn't, they just don't make sun hats very adequate!

That was really all that was interesting. We saw a different pediatrician in the group because our primary pediatrician has been gone as his wife is terminally ill. I missed him being there, he is way more in depth and has much more to say than this woman did. Oh well, hopefully he will be back soon!

Lovely day at the Park...

Finally the weather was nice enough to be outside yesterday, without long sleeves and warm hats! Rowan loved swinging in the swing, and going down the slide a couple times. And we couldn't get her to let go of the monkey bars. Poor girl with no hair, needed a hat to ward off sunburn on her first day in the sun in a long time! I finally found a hat that fit, although I think I had to buy 3-6 months. Oh well. Looks cute!

Despite the dog being naughty in the morning, we brought him along too. He behaved very well and enjoyed the fresh air as well.
