She responds to "no" as well. Even before we have to say it, if she knows we've said it before, she'll look back at us to see what we're going to do. It's crazy how soon you can see the sinful nature coming out in children! She throws tantrums when she doesn't get what she wants. She is a sinful being and I pray every day that she will come to know the Lord - the One who saved her life from the beginning.
She has been sick the past few days...leading to us having to clean up the biggest mess she's ever made on Sunday! We were heading out for lunch and hear the grossest noise, and all of her lunch came up in the car :-( Poor baby. Yesterday was her scheduled 9 month pediatrician appointment, so I figured she could get looked at then. Hopefully we are past the worst!
At our appointment yesterday, the doctor said she looks great! The only thing they're a little concerned about is her weight since she's steadied off, and now losing weight since December/January. I have to start supplementing soy milk and try upping the amount of solid food she gets. Hopefully, by our follow up appointment in a month, she will gain some weight. I'm really hoping that it's just because my milk supply has gone down due to being pregnant. Hopefully with the added soy milk she'll be getting all that she needs. Please pray that it is nothing more!! The cardiologist is keeping a close eye on her growth since it can be tied to her heart. Our next appointment with them is April 17. We're hoping to get a clean bill of health heart-wise.
Again, please pray that Lyla gains weight, and that we will know when to be concerned or when it's just her growing and moving a lot. She could just be a small baby! But we definitely can't over look the heart factor in all of this.
