I had to take J.J. to her 12 month doctor's appointment so I thought I would record some stats for her. She weighs 21 pounds 3 ounces and is in the 54% (a big drop from when she was younger). She hasn't gained much with all the walking and toddling around she is doing. She is 29 1/4 inches long and is in the 51% (which is an increase from the 30's) so she is growing!! She still seems short to me;) And finally her head size is 18 inches which is in the 80%. She's always had a big head from birth thoughÜ They put my poor baby through the ringer today. She got three shots plus a flu shot and they took blood from her toe to check her lead level (they just got a machine that tells them if they have been exposed to lead which is awesome and covered by insurance) Have I said how glad I am that I switched pediatricians!! Thanks Jen! Anyway, her lead level is fine and I was sent off with a whimpering, sore baby girl. But I took her to story time with her sister and Grandma and she was clapping and laughing away and then took a two and a half hour nap when we got home!!! It sure does suck taking a healthy baby in and taking a cranky, not feeling good baby home;(
