Healthy baby


Raina went to the doctor yesterday for her 15-18 month check up and is a healthy baby. She is 22 lbs (25th percentile) and 29.5 inches (10th percentile). That's a lot different from when she was a few months old- she used to be a chunker- in the 75% for weight and the 25% for length. We had to go on base for this visit, but she liked her new doctor. She had to get 3 shots, which she wasn't pleased about, but her next visit will be at 2 years and she won't need any shots then.
I asked the doctor about how she already chose a hand (she's a lefty) and the doctor said some kids choose early. She tested both her hands and says she has better fine control with her left, but they are both about the same strength, so it's possible she still might switch. We'll have to wait and see!

Looks like she'll be joining us in the shorty crowd.
