18 (well, 19, almost 20) Month Checkup

Penny had her 18 month wellness checkup on Thursday morning.

She now recognizes Maria, the nurse who gives her shots. She is also the one who weighs and measures her and brings us back to the exam room. So we didn't have much time at the office before the tears started.

She weighs 24 pounds 4 ounces and is 32 inches long. This up from 22 pounds 5 ounces and 29 inches at 15 months - a big height jump that puts her in 75% for both weight and height. We think that 3 inches is all in her torso :)

The iPhone and a Thomas and Friends book helped to calm the tears:

She received 2 shots, Hep A and Chicken Pox:

She is in great health, her chest sounds much better from her visit last week (we can cut back on the nebulizer).

Our girl is doing wonderfully. We are very blessed.
