Jenna and I just left the doctor's office for her 15 month appointment. She did really well and charmed the doctor. When he came in he informed me that 15 month olds usually get really upset at their appointments. She did get a little scared and clung to me (and honestly, I didn't mind). But he said she did really well comparatively, so I was glad to hear that. When he opened the door to leave she waved and said bye-bye and blew him a kiss. You'd think it would happen all the time, but I guess not because he went on and on about it and went to grab his nurse out of another office to get Jenna to blow her a kiss. Of course Jenna ate up the attention. :)
The details: she weighs 28lb 4oz and is 33.5". I forgot to see what her head circumference is. Her weight and height track well and off the chart. Dr Grossman asked if her dad is tall, so I guess he thinks she might be tall. She has a pretty strong short gene to overcome though! Doctor said to expect that she will start dropping on the chart at her 18 month appointment or maybe a little later.
She had to get 3 shots and screamed through them all, but when the nurse left she blew her a kiss through the screams, so I wasn't too worried. She was happy within a minute or two. We scheduled another appointment for late May and just got a special treat for doing so well. It is a Tinkerbell wand. She has been waving it all around in the backseat.
