2 year check-up

tuesday was kennedie's 2 year check up - since her birthday was the day before break, 

we postponed the appointment until after our vacation since she usually is a bit fussier and has a little fever after getting her immunizations...and glad we did. since then she has been a bit more needy than usual - probably a combination of side effects of the shots & a little cold she & mommy seem to have gotten from a fellow traveler on our plane ride home.

kennedie likes going to the doctor - she's always been a very good patient.

on the way, she started talking about how we were going to the 'docers'  & kept asking 'my turn?' once we got there when the nurses came out for other patients. she just happened to be on mommy's lap while she was getting blood drawn (2 birds with one stone!) when the nurses came from her. 

the thing is beeping on my thumb

the cuff is giving my arm a big hug

she had her oxygen level & blood pressure checked like a big girl! 

she loved it!

next, she was measured & weighed. here are her stats:

23 lbs - 25% for her age

 35 3/4 inches tall - 75%

head circumference - 18 1/4 inches

she loves getting to stand on the stickers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

while we waited for dr. engle, kennedie did some doctor playing of her own. she had fun measuring mommy's & daddy's heads & saying 'ah' with the popsicle sticks

daddy's turn

mommy's turn

 

 

say aaahhhh

kennedie is doing great, according to dr. engle - mommy & daddy thing so too :) 

she's continuing on her same growth curves-

 (we were concerned about her weight because she has only gained 1 lb in the last 6 months - but are feeling much better about it now) & her language acquisition, fine & gross motor & social skills are developing well (especially now that she has stopped biting) we couldn't be happier :)
