Annie had her 15-month check up today (even though she's 16 months, I guess that's close enough). She is normal and absolutely impressed the heck out of Dr. Sumner. Well, he acted impressed anyway. I'm sure he does that for every baby...
Anyway, at 21 pounds and 30 inches tall, Annie is 25% for both height and weight. Her head is at 50%, which is normal for our smart kids. :)
When Dr. Sumner asked me how many words she says, I had to stop and think. Aren't there some really great moms out there who write those all down as they say them? I'm going to become one of those great moms. As soon as I've checked my email, cleaned the kitchen, made Jake's lunch for tomorrow, folded the laundry and picked out what the kids and I will wear tomorrow.
No, wait. After all that, I'm going to bed.
So to answer his question, I told Brian (as some friends and I have taken to calling our good buddy, Dr. Sumner) that she has at least 20 words (he said average is 10-15 at this age). And on the way home when I counted, I got to 25, so I was close.
We also discovered that Annie's one-year molars are coming in AND she has an ear infection in each ear. I suspected something was going on because refused to nap yesterday and she told me she hated me all morning this morning (well, in her own baby way she said that. It sounded more like, "Mommyyyyy!!! Up! No! Cracker! Mommyyyyyy!"). So she's on an antibiotic for the ears and Motrin for her teeth.
This afternoon Jake said, "I'm glad Dr. Sumner is Annie's doctor too. Because he's the best doctor in the world. And the shots and finger pricks don't hurt that much."
We'll see if he's still singing that tune at his six year check up this summer...
Here are some pictures of Annie and her friends from their playdate on Tuesday. Very fun time. I even got out the tea set from Aunt Jane...until Annie started banging her cup on her saucer. Then it went back into its pretty box. :)
Annie was more interested in helping take the picture than being in this one...
Hanging out, watching Sex & The City and drinking margaritas (okay, okay, it was Dora The Explorer and milk)...
Ike agreed to take a picture of all of us ladies before he went to work...
Have a good weekend, everyone, and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to Granny & Papa and Jane & George!
