We live in downtown Portland, where there are a lot of young yuppies and hip retirees. So, come Halloween, we weren't quite sure what we'd be doing with ESK. Luckily, a neighborhood association organized a Howl-o-ween party in one of the buildings and we got to do some trick-or-treating. The older folks in the building just went ga-ga over all the little tots in costume. It was much fun. ESK had her 9-month check up today and I'm happy to say she is healthy girl. She charmed the nurse with her smiles and curious stares and hardly cried with her flu shot. I thought she had gotten so chubby and so tall over the past few months. But it turns out she's only 25th percentile in both height and weight. I guess I always imagined having a big fat baby, but I wouldn't trade in ESK for the world!
Anyway, I'm sure it's hard for her to keep her weight up these days with all the moving around she does. Here's a video of her using her Bumbo as a walker:

i can't seem to get the video to work. i'll have to come back for it later, but even just the still shot of her with the bumbo makes me laugh. she is so mobile!
G says, "Baby E is walking!" Sucha charmer, that one!
