15 months!

kate is now 15 months old! goodness me, she is such a big girl!! we went to the dr yesterday and she had a very good check up. (she didn't scream too much....until the shots, that is!) here are her stats:

weight: 20.5 lbs (10 percentile)

height: 30 1/2" (50 percentile)

head: 45.5 cm (50 percentile)

her favorite things to do now are:

- accepting a bite of something, but before she closes her mouth she pushes it out and lets it drop on her lap....then she takes another bite of the same thing and enjoys it. very strange.
- squealing whenever she sees someone she loves (especially dani)
- her pink crocs
- tickling other people while saying "ticka ticka ticka"
- dogs
- trying to put her clothes on by herself
- swimming
- singing "I'm so glad when daddy comes home"
- following dani around the house
- watching dani do anything
- copy dani brushing her hair

- when grampa comes home

the results are in!

today we took kate to the doctor for her 12 month check up. she hated dr couchman and screamed the whole time (even though he's such a nice man!) it didn't help that the appointment ended with 2 shots!! ouch! but now that she is 1 she's allowed to do all sorts of things that we've been holding off on. one is eating strawberries, which I knew she would love!

she still isn't big enough to sit in her front facing car seat yet! she has to be 20 lbs for that. here are her stats:

18 lbs 5 oz (10th percentile)

30 1/4 inches (75th percentile)

she has been looking like so much of a chubby wubby that we thought for sure she would be up on the charts! no luck, but she's healthy and happy and we're glad we don't have to go back to the dr for 3 months!
