We went in for Caitlin's 18 month check up today. She is doing great--and was very talkative and busy during the visit, so the providers got to see all she is up to first hand.
She is a hair shy of 25 pounds and 33 inches tall--which is great as I want to keep her rear-facing in the car as long as possible and she can stay rear-facing (for safety) until she is 33 pounds in her current carseat. The nurse practitioner we went to was SO wonderful and respectful of our parenting choices. I'm going to request her from now on--she is consistently wonderful.
Anyway, Caitlin got a shot (tetanus) and didn't even flinch or make a peep, but we had talked beforehand about how she was going to get a boo-boo and that it was OK but it would probably hurt. She was so good, the nurse had a really easy time, so that makes everyone happy.
Since we've been home, she's been showing off her boo-boo (but showing off her right knee instead of her left thigh--ha ha--obviously isn't hurting too badly) and loving her little band-aid.
Thanks for checking in!
