She doesn't like to be held anymore. period. which isn't great when you are sitting for 15+ minutes in the doctors office, like wrestling an anaconda or something.
But, we got our 1 year checkup with Dr. Phillips! She weighed in at 18 lb 15 oz. Which is a little lighter than I anticipated but considering she choked on her pancake prior to the appointment and the threw up all her breakfast and milk, she was a little lighter than normal. She was like 19 lb 4 oz at home the other day and that's probably closer to right.
She came in at 29.5 inches long! Tall and skinny, who would have thunk it. I think she was around 12% on her weight and 50% on height. Her head was 18 inches and I think that was 50% as well. Overall, fairly normal.
Nothing of any great note from the appointment. 3 shots and she seemed pretty well on track developmentally.
The off to Louisville to go see Aaron the Helmet Fixer Upper Dude....he's not a Dr so I don't know what else to call him, but we like him : )
Gotta love these 2 hours to the dr appointments for a whole 15 minutes of time there and then 2 hours back. That's what makes me so tired!
I was hoping the helmet would be gone, but alas, he wants us in it for another month. Her head has improved another 1/8 of an inch for 1/4 inch total improvement, to me it looks better than 1/4 inch improvement, but we are making progress.
He said the closer she gets to her soft spot closing for good the less movement there would be but since the helmet still fits, it isn't too tight and it cost a small fortune, lets keep it on and see if we can get some more improvement out of it. So, another month of helmet here we come. Not that it's that big of a deal, just something you look forward to ditching. She actually doesn't really like for it to be off now and will have to get used to NOT having it later on.
We also need to adjust some of the helmet bling, she lost her Y the other day in Mallory, so now it's just Mallor......I've got extras, I've just got to put my finger on them!
Sunday is Half Marathon Day!! Wish me luck! It's going to be warmer than I had hoped for, but I'm sure we will make it fine. It starts at 7 am, so it's not like we will be running at high noon....at least I hope I will not still be out there at high noon!!
Also, April 10 is Tiffany's birthday!! And then Tuesday is Ben and I's 8th Anniversary and Tucker's 8th birthday! Lots going on.
We will be celebrating Mallory's birthday at Mrs. Carole's on Thursday the 14th when the most kiddos possible are there to celebrate, so look for pictures of that coming up too!
And lastly, I've placed the order for Team Butterbean Tee Shirts, but there's still time if you want one, just let me know.
I've also extended my 31 party to close on Monday the 11th now, so be sure to look at www.thirtyonegifts.com and see if there's anything you would like. We get 15% of the sales back to our MOD team!!
Here's a few pictures of Mallory on her actual Birthday!!
