9 Month Checkup


Madeline had her 9 month check up this morning. She really liked to rip the paper on the table while she waited for the doctor to come.

Andrew was able to come too. It is nice to have the extra hands with this little wiggle worm.


The nurse measured her length. She drew a line at her head and one at her foot. Madeline was 28 1/2" long. That means that she has grown 2 inches in the past 3 months and she is in the 77th percentile.


Then the nice nurse weighed her. She was 16 lbs 13 oz. She has gained 2 pounds in the past 3 months and is in the 12th percentile.



Then Dr. Woods came to check her out. She is a nice doctor and said that she looks great! (Notice the paper all torn up. There isn't much else to do in a doctor's office.)


Madeline only had to have 1 shot this time. (Much better than the 4 at the last visits). I held her while the nurse gave her the shot. She fussed for a second and then she was ok. She did a great job at the doctor's office. We don't go back until she is a year old. Wow!

Savannah loves to tear up the paper too! I see you have a little skinny mini as well. :) I was just telling another mom... leggings work great on those skinny girls that we have a hard time finding pants small enough in the waist! :) Just wanted to pass that along. She is beautiful!

Oh good ... I could use a few more friends down here. Thanks for volunteering. :) Austin is about 3-3.5 hours away from Corpus. That's neat that he is looking at a program out here. Austin is a really neat city and it's only about an hour or less from San Antonio ... another really fun place!
