Paige had her two year check-up at the doctor today. She can actually say her doctor's name now, Dr. Herrbold, but she was a little shy and didn't say it correctly to him. She just sort of said "Dr. Bold" and smiled at him.
Paige did really well at the appointment; she wasn't scared at all. She wasn't scared at her last visit either, but I think her one year appointment was pretty awful (I will have to check back on the blog to see which one it was.) It is because of those darn immunizations...what can you do though?
So, this time I informed Paige that she was going to get some. I thought she was only getting one (Hep A) but she actually had to get two because of this new updated Prevnar 13 vaccine. Anyway, instead of just springing it on her, I told her about it. I was honest and told her that it would hurt but it would be over quickly. I believe this really helped her because as soon as they were done, she calmed down really quickly. Yay!
So, the appointment went well and Paige got a good report. Even though she is still not on the growth chart for her weight, she is growing well. Here are her new stats: She weighs 21 pounds (she would be in the first percentile if she was 22 lbs), her height is 32.75 inches (25%ile), and her head circumference is 18.5 inches (45%ile).
