The 19 Month 18 Month Checkup

It was very hard getting Keira scheduled for her 18 month checkup, so we had to settle for the 18 month checkup a few days ago...even though she is 19 months old now. Hey...at least it wasn't an 18 month checkup when she is 4 years old, so I shouldn't complain, right? :) She's doing great although she hasn't really gained any weight since her last check up at 15 months.

Here are her stats:

Height 33 inches

Weight 21 pounds 8 oz.

Head Circ. 17 3/4 inches

She is in the 75% for her height, but only about 5-10% for weight and 10-25% for head circ.

I guess that means that she's going to be tall and skinny-very UNLIKE her mommy :).

I am a little concerned with the weight thing, but the Dr. said not to worry since she obviously is not malnourished. It's just part of her genetic makeup to be a small framed little girl. She's doing great and is pretty much right on track with her development! She says about 10-20 words, she can throw a ball, she can point to body parts and name them, she can stack anywhere from 6-9 blocks, she can go up and down stairs. She really is doing fantastically. She did end up getting 4 shots, but stickers apparently make things all better :)

I didn't get any pictures of her at the Dr's office, but here is a picture of her that I may have posted before. It's an older picture that I just LOVE of her being a ham and copying me when I sleep and snore. She's so funny!
