turtle's 9mo appt

Our dr appt today went really well. turtle is right on track and getting so big. i was a little worried before the appt b/c i knew turtle wasnt gaining much weight and i wondered if there was something wrong. but her dr. reassured me that it was normal for a baby's weight to fluctuate during the first year. 

so now for her stats. 17lbs 1/4oz = 20% for weight (down from 50% at her 6 mo check) 30inches = 97% for height... the dr said she was putting all her energy toward height not weight :) and 17inches = 30% for head circ. 

also, turtle got her HIB and polio vax. and Monkey got his flu shot..... the 3 year old cried like a baby when he got his, and the baby only made the slightest peep after her second shot.

Great appointment. my oldest son (almost 11 years) is the worst at getting shots. He freaks himself out completely until he vomits....everytime. I would sooner take all three babies for shots over him anyday.

I think your DD is going to be a supermodel. you are pretty tall if I remember from pics?
