2 year stats

Mallory had her 2 year checkup yesterday afternoon & it was such a different experience than just six short months ago.  She completely entertained herself by watching the movie playing in the waiting room and sitting in the little kiddie chairs.  Once called back, she walked right back there & stepped on the scale.  Then backed up to the wall for the nurse to check her height.  Who needs mom anymore??  I could have cried!  Long gone are the days of me carrying her & laying her on the scale.  I wasn't prepared for such big girl behavior, but I was also proud of her.  Her little personality is coming out more & more each day & it is so entertaining to watch.  While I miss my little baby, it is also so fun to see her grow and blossom into this little person she is becoming. 

Now, onto her stats at two years old- 

Weight: 26.7 lbs (50th percentile)

Height: 34 3/4 inches (75th percentile)

Head: (Between 25th and 50th percentile)

She is still pretty long & lean.  Her Dr always comments 'her growth chart is beautiful', she probably says that about every child, ha.  No questions or concerns though, everything looked great.  She didn't have to get shots, but had her finger pricked to do blood work to check iron.  Her pedi does this routinely at 1 and 2 years old.  She amazed me & never shed a tear with the blood drawing.  She wanted daddy to kiss her boo boo all the way home & kept saying she had 'cut her finger'.  We resisted the urge to go shopping & rushed home instead to see the cabinets put in our new house.  It was a great afternoon, I wish I could work 1/2 days everyday!
