15 Month Check-up

Just a quick note to record Anastyn's 15 month stats. We went to the doctor on Wednesday and everything went well. (Aside from getting shots...who likes those?) Anastyn weighed in at a whopping ... 19 lbs. Yes, that means she is in the FOURTH percentile. REALLY??? She is small, but she doesn't seem THAT small! Anyway, the doctor said she is just fine, and she is staying consistent on the chart and she looks good and healthy, she is just a small fry! She was in the 21st percentile for height (29.5 inches) and her head circumference was 14% (44.5 cm).
She has met all the milestones for children of her age and the doctor was surprised how still she sat when she checked out her ears and nose and mouth. She was a VERY good girl. So far this was the best appointment yet. Of course, the doctor let her play with the light on her ear/nose checking instrument (no clue what that thing is called), which Anastyn thought was pretty neat. And she opened her mouth up wide when the doctor asked her to, so she didn't even need to use the popsicle stick (love my medical terminology here?). The doctor said she was "stellar" and thought it was cute that Anastyn waved bye-bye to her as soon as we told her to say bye-bye.
ANYWHO... shots...well, they are shots, she remembered from last time and did not even want me to lay her down. We got through them and she did well.
Mainly, we are just so happy to have a happy, healthy, little girl. Life just gets better and better every day with her. What a wonderful blessing!
I have pics to post from when we met baby Lincoln, so hopefully I will get those loaded onto our computer this weekend. We can't wait to see him again. I hear he is still an EXCELLENT little boy. But how could he not be with such awesome, wonderful parents! (LOVE you all) Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

P.S. I really did think this was a quick note, I guess quick doesn't always mean short when coming from me :)
