Earlier this week I took Samantha in for her 18 month checkup and Dr. Walley agreed she’s basically perfect! 🙂 She was a little unsure walking into the room…
and really unsure after I had to hand her over to Nurse Shelly to get weighed!
Samantha is a big girl! She’s 32 & 3/4 inches tall (90th %) and 28 lbs, 10 oz (95th %)!! Dr. Walley thought she just looked great. He said it’s good that her height and weight continue to increase at the same rate. He said if she still continues growing at this rate by the time she’s two, she’ll probably end up being quite tall!
The boys stats at this age…
Maxwell at 18 months – 33 inches tall (90th %) and 24 lbs, 13 oz. (50th %)
Spencer at 18 months – 34 inches (98th%!!) and 27 lbs, 6 oz (95th%)
She and Spencer are pretty on par with each other…Samantha is just about an inch shorter and a pound heavier! 🙂 My lovable, squeezable baby!
While waiting for Dr. Walley, she had fun finding her belly button…
Reading her book…
Playing with her baby…
Eating her baby…
and chewing some tongue depressors!
She was really sweet to Dr. Walley and didn’t fuss at all. She was showing off all of her words and tricks too – she was naming things in the book like shoe, ball, flower, bottle, juice, and bath. Smart girl! She also waved bye bye to him and blew him a kiss! She did have to get two shots which she didn’t like but she recovered quickly.
Always thankful for good doctor reports and healthy, happy babies!!
