3 Year Well Check

Paige had her yearly doctor visit today with Dr. Herrbold. She loves going to see the doctor, so she was very excited about this trip. She got to get her bloodpressure taken for the first time with the cuff, so that was an interesting experience. (She may also have gotten it done when she was a few months old at Children's Mercy, when she was having her heart murmur checked out, but I can't remember for sure.) Another new experience for Paige was that she got to put on this 'gown' while we waited for Dr. Herrbold. However, it was very paper-like and uncomfortable, and she only kept it on long enough for me to take this picture...can you tell that she is dying to take it off?! So, overall we got a good report from Dr. Herrbold. Paige is still very much on the petite side but she is growing. (Surely, that bout with the virus in Florida had some effect on her weight on the scale today...darn that sickness!) Anyway, Paige weighed in at 24.5 lbs and was 36.25 inches tall. With those measurements, she is still below the growth curve for her weight (just barely) and she is in the 25th percentile for height.
