Natalie's 18 months checkup

Natalie is now 18 months old! Wow, a year and a half! I can't believe time has flown by. Thursday, Natalie had her routine checkup with her pediatrician and she did great. Her measurements were:

Weight: 23 lbs (25th percentile)
Height: 32.5 inches (75th percentile)
Head: 18.5 (90th percentile)

Overall, Natalie is healthy and an advanced talker for her age. Dr. T said Natalie's big head means she is smart :-) She can say many words, although she was a bit shy when we put her on the spot to speak in front of her doctor. She can identify and name a few basic colors, some numbers and alphabets, and of course, animals. She still loves to read her books!!! I think we can enroll Natalie in kindergarten now--HA!

After her checkup, Natalie received a Hepititis-A shot on her leg. She cried but recovered quick. Luckily, Daddy was there to help distract her from the pain.

Natalie's next checkup will be in 6 months, when she turns 2 years old! Oh my goodness! And her little brother is expected to arrive in less than 2 months!
