She had her 18 month check up this week. Dr. H told us how perfect she is - a regular comment that we enjoy hearing - and told us how excited she always is to see us. That is partly due to seeing our super awesome kid, but also because she loves seeing which diaper Michal is wearing (I always make sure it's a cute one, and I try to avoid wearing one she's seen before), especially as we give her practice with cloth that in turn allows her to be knowledgeable with other families who use cloth diapers.
In any case, M's stats for this appointment:
Height - 32 3/4" - now in the 80th percentile - down a bit
Weight - 26 lbs., 4 oz. - holding strong around the 70th percentile
Head circumference - 19" - 90somethingth percentile. Big head!
The other fun surprise - ear infection in her left ear. It's been about 10 months since she had one, so it's not terrible, but it is amusing that this is her third ear infection, each of which were discovered during a regularly scheduled well baby checkup. We have never seen her exhibit any symptoms that would indicate an ear infection - no fever, no pain in her ear, nothing. She's a weird kid.
We headed up to Baltimore to see some friends, one of who was visiting from New Jersey. It's always nice to spend time with friends!
Someone's showing off her mad water drinking skills.
Drinking it backwards, while walking... that's talent.

Giving Uncle Roy a hug.
How nice to spend time with Rebecca! New Jersey is too far away.
Taking a very important call.
VERY important baby - taking two calls at once!
Goodness she loves buttons. Luckily we gave her remotes that didn't really do anything to the TV. Although later she turned off the cable box. Twice.
Newest trick: lip.
It's usually a little more puckered up, but she's so freaking cute when we ask her to do it.
The best is when she's upset - it just gets poutier.
Always a joy to see & spend time w/ you all! Thx for hanging out w/ us homebound folks :-)
