1 Year Check Up

Yesterday Annie had her 1 year appointment. Here's the stats:

Weight: 20 lbs even (31st %)
Height: 29.5 inches (63rd %)
Head: 17.5 inches (31st %)
Charlie was 21 pounds at his 1-year and he was weighed naked while Miss Annie got to keep her clothes on. So she's probably actually like 2 pounds smaller than he was at this age. The doctor was a little concerned with her smallness and lectured me on making sure she's getting meat everyday. They actually did an iron test (which was awful and involved a finger prick and a lot of blood) which came back fine so the smallness shouldn't have anything to do with the amount of meat in her diet. I think she's just a dainty little princess and the doctor should just accept that.
.
We got the ok to switch her to whole milk and to turn the car seat around. Today was our first outing with her facing forward and I asked Charlie twice if she was asleep. It finally occurred to me I could look in my rear view mirror and see her little blue eyes myself.
.
Yay for being 1!

I can't believe she's one already- we haven't seen you guys in forever!
I sent you an invite to our Little Explorer's group.... I'm guessing it got spammed, so I'll send another. :)
