Beach fun

I turned 18 months old on Tuesday. Can you believe it? I'm getting so big! Mommy noticed that I had a growth spurt a few weeks ago and has been curious for my doctor's appointment to see how I would fare on the charts. The suspense ended today. I cooperated beautifully for the weighing and measuring! It was actually kind of fun. We found out I was 30 1/4 inches tall (13%) and 19 lbs 3 oz (1%)! Everyone was happy to see that my percentiles were pretty much the same as last time. So no worries! And everything else looked good, too. Usually there are no shots at 18 months, but because of a vaccine shortage I had one more to go. They gave me another booster a bit early so now I should have no more shots until kindergarten, we hope! William was more nervous about my shots than I was. But he got to blow bubbles while I had my shots and he got even more stickers than me! And when we went to Burger King after the doctor HE got a toy and I DIDN'T! But I really didn't mind. All I wanted was the french fries ... and my blankie and nuk. I wanted my nuk in my mouth even while I was chewing my food. I was still sad about how I was treated at the doctor. It's so unfair for them to do that to sweet little girls like me.
