Anna got to go to her preschool today and meet her teachers! She was a tiny bit shy at first, but then warmed up pretty quickly. She apparently thought she needed to show off every bit of knowledge she’s already stored up, as she walked around the room pointing out various things that had her [...]

Vital stats: 18 months, 6 days old 24 lbs. 14.5 oz. 32″ tall Anna had her 18 month visit today. She’s still pretty much right in the middle of the growth charts for height and weight. The pediatrician was impressed with her vocabulary and how tolerant she was about being examined. She only needed one [...]

Vital stats: 15 months, 3 days old 22 lbs. 8.5 oz. 30.2″ tall Anna is still pretty much in the 50th percentile on the charts in all respects. My average little baby! Poor girl got 3 shots today, and was not happy about them. The nurse commented that it’s a good thing she does this [...]

Vital stats: 6 months old exactly! 16 lbs, 6.5 oz 26.25 inches Anna is now in the 60th percentile for height and weight, which explains why all of her 3-6 month clothes are starting to not fit! Luckily, her lungs sounded clear, but they’re having us finish the course of antibiotics anyway (as they should, [...]

Vital stats: 4 months, 5 days old 14 lbs, 5 oz 25 inches Anna is still pretty much in the 50th percentile for everything, although she jumped up a bit on the height chart. I’m taking that with a grain of salt since I think it’s really hard to accurately measure a squirmy baby! She [...]

Vital stats: 9 weeks, 2 days old 11 lbs, 8 oz 23 inches Anna is pretty much in the 50th percentile for everything. So I was kind of surprised when the pediatrician remarked that she was a “solid” baby. But then my mom pointed out that the second child has to be solid to stand [...]
