Sweet Mae Flower

This year some friends came up with a cute Halloween theme for Mae and me-- Jason doesn't dress up... but he might want to next year since we were so cute this year :) Mae was a May flower and I was April showers. I figure that I'll only have a couple years where I can dress her up in whatever I choose. She surprisingly did well with the petals sewed onto a headband. I thought she'd rip that off after a few minutes, but she didn't seem to mind it.


We actually had a little get together over at our house on Halloween night and Mae had fun watching all the other kids...maybe that distracted her from the headband. Next year, we'll actually go trick-or-treating which will be so fun to see her running around.

Mae also had her 9 month check-up last week. She weighed in at 19 lbs 4 oz and is 26 3/4 inches. I thought surely she'd be 20 lbs, but I guess the crawling has slowed her weight growth a little. Her head is still in the 90th percentile though...a Dallas trait. Everything else checked out great, and our next appointment won't be until she's 1 year! I can't believe it!!
