Here is a great hair picture…from when Amelia woke up from her nap on New Years Day.

She is 1 year and a quarter tomorrow. We went to the doctor this morning for her 15 month checkup. She is doing great! He always says he doesn’t get to know her because she doesn’t get sick.

Well, not sick enough for him. She did wake up with a cough this morning…plus one shot today- resulting in a fever from one or the other or a combination of the two. I think it might be our first fever!

He was very surprised at her height. She went from 75th to 90th percentile. “They” say babies grow out, then up, then out, then up. She has recently grown “up”. She’s 32 inches tall, four short of three feet! Yikes, Ethan told me once that you can estimate adult height based on a 2 year old…are we looking at 6 feet??? She’d better play volleyball.
Her head and weight are also beautiful and proportioned to her 90th percentile height.

For me, the neat part about today was she actually sat on the little stools they have in the waiting room. She played with a toy that is beads on swirly and curvy wires. That is what the big kids there do while we used to sit and watch them. She’s a kid now!

Next up: we’re going to try cutting off bottles cold turkey. The doctor said that it gets harder as they get older. Maybe this weekend depending on how she is feeling…
