Emily is exactly 1.5 today. Sometimes I can't believe how old she seems. She's doing a lot of pretend play (feeding her stuffed animals, talking to herself) and really interacting with me.
We celebrated with her 18 month checkup. Emily loves th
e doctor's office. There's wooden rocking horse in the waiting room, which she's now big enough to climb up on and rock herself. She runs around the exam room and looks at everything. The best part was the brightly lit fish tank in the lab room where she had blood taken (by a woman who must have been in training because she took forever & got blood all over E's hand!). Thank goodness for the fish distraction. The office also gives each child a book at every checkup.
She's still tall. :) 33.75" I think they said. They also weighed her in kilograms (why?).. 10.5... which, according to google, is 23 lbs. She got to stand on the big girl scale. The doc isn't worried about her low weight yet, but did encourage me to feed her nice high calorie foods. Good thing she likes to eat peanut butter by the spoonful. :)
She was so tuckered out by the excitement & the shots, that she slept on my shoulder while I grocery shopped!
I don't have any new pictures to share, so here's one on the eating theme from Granny's house last month.
cute! that's funny about the kilos--chris always does his calculations in kilos so i think it has to do with the fact that medications usually use the metric system.
