9 Month Checkup

Laura Elizabeth had her 9 month check up today with Dr. Richard Huie at Mayfair Medical. We had thought that she may be had an ear infection but come to find out, she just has found her ears! Dr. Huie said that she was PERFECT! He was very impressed with her hand/eye coordination. He even called it phenomenal. She would not stay still while he was in there. He also mentioned that she was an active little girl. Of course, he didn't have to tell me that!

She didn't have any scheduled vaccinations but since she was healthy, we went ahead and got her flu shot. This is round 1 of 2. We will have to go back in a month for a followup shot. I am sure that she will like that!

I was a little concerned before the visit about her being a runt. However, she is actually very tall for her age. She measured 29 1/4 inches (90th percentile) but only weighed 18 lbs 4 oz (50th percentile). For some reason, she weighed less today than she did a couple weeks ago.

When we were finished with our appointment, we walked out and found Laura with Anne Reaves and Saxon! Anne Reaves helped me "babysit" LeLe while Saxon saw the doctor. They are just absolutely precious children. As soon as LeLe saw Anne Reaves, she had to give her a kiss!

Dr. Huie's office gives out lollipops to good little girls and boys. So, of course, Saxon and Anne Reaves got one. LeLe tried to steal Baby Saxon's so we went and got her one too! She thoroughly enjoyed her sucker and liked wearing it too!
