One Year Appt.

Today Ella had her 1 year appt at the pediatrician. All went well.. besides having some "poopy problems" to discuss... she is as healthy as can be! She really likes our doctor and it was so cute, before the doctor left she was sitting in front of the computer typing and Ella walked up to her and gently patted her on the back and was jabbering away at her:) She weighed in at 23lbs 12oz (80th percentile) and her height is 31.75in (off the charts yet) and her head came in normal at 46.7cm. The poor thing had to have had like 6-7 shots today so it was a little rough. I don't think there is a worst thing to do as a mom than to hold down their child while someone else inflicts pain on them. Protecting our child against sickness is very important...but it is just so awful when you know they are hurting. She calmed down shortly after and apparently it wasn't too sore later b/c I found her on the floor slowly pulling the bandaids off (and putting them in her mouth to chew them - so gross!) One year of good health down...hopefully many more to go!
