9-month checkup

Annabelle had her 9-month checkup today a couple of weeks late. The doctor seemed pleased with her development!

Our little girl has now reached the 90th percentile for her length. She is now 29 inches long!
Her weight percentile has gone down between the 25th and 50th. She's weighing in at 18 pounds. She's weighed that much for at least a month now. She's very tall and skinny.
And her head circumference is holding steady at 75 percent! She'll always be on the high end with that!

She had to get a flu shot today and had to have some blood taken from her index finger. She was NOT very happy about those two events. She screamed so loud when she was getting her blood taken. Mainly it was because the lady was holding on to her finger so dang tight. By the end of it, she was covered in tears, snot and drool and her face was bright red and splotchy. But she recovered by lunch, although Chris had to hold her during the entire meal.

So we have to go back in four weeks for a second flu shot for her. They break up the doses for little babies. She won't appreciate that at all!
