2 Year Checkup

Penny had her 2 year doctor's appointment this morning, and Gabe was able to join us.

She stood on the scale for the first time to get weighed and measured.
height-1

In the past she would lay down on the scale, but she's a big girl now and not a tear the whole visit!

height-2

She weighs 27 pounds, 4 ounces and is 34.5 inches tall. Up an inch and almost a pound and a half from her last visit only 2 months ago. Growing like a weed :). Both height and weight are 75th percentile.

Head is growing well too - making room for that big 'ol brain :).

The doctor still hears Penny's heart murmur but because she is growing so well she sees no reason for concern. She said it could just be something that she has, that causes no issues.

Penny was so good! No tears, she let the doctor look in her eyes with the light and listen to her chest and back. And then she spent the rest of the appointment literally jumping around the exam room in her diaper. I wish I had a video but thought it rude to whip out the camera while we were talking with the doctor.

General diagnosis is the we have a happy, healthy, smart kiddo on our hands, and we agree!

  1. "They say" if you double a child's height on their second bday, you get their overall height. Looks like she'll be tall! 5'7.5"!
