Visit to the Doctor's Office!

Brandon and I took Maddie to the pediatrician today for her 12 month check up. She had 2 immunizations (Hep A & PCV) and she got her check up.

She is becoming difficult at the doctor's office now that she is older. While the doctor was listening to her heartbeat with the stethoscope, she kept pulling the ear parts out of the doctor's ears and taking the cold metal part off her chest and handing it back to the doctor.

She was pretty brave for the shots. I think she was more offended than anything.

Here are her stats...

Weight 18.7 lbs -10% -
She is going to be in a backwards facing car seat forever! She is such a skinny Minnie!
Length 29.5 inches - 50%
Head 17.75 inches - 50%


The doctor says she is a happy, healthy baby! I always worry they might discover a sneaky ear infection or something else I missed, so I am always happy when Maddie has a clean bill of health. She got all kinds of toys from the toy chest... blue sunglasses, a bracelet, and bubbles.

That's a pretty awesome doctor. Toy chest? Ours has a couple of big plasma TV's up with Disney movies and a big fish tank, but no toy chest! That is so funny with the stethoscope. I don't know why Tyler is a giant baby, but he's always in the 50+ percentile for everything, and Maddie and Adam are little peanuts!
