Happy, Healthy, Looooud baby!

Katherine wanted to be sure the whole world (or at least all of Pittsburgh) heard how her 1 year check-up went. She tried to tell everyone by screaming as loud as she possibly could (which is preeeeetty loud), throughout her doctor's appointment, but finally accepted Mommy's suggestion to just blog about it instead.



Katherine checked in at 18lbs, 3oz (around the 25th percentile) and 29.5 inches (around the 60th percentile). The doctor pronounced her to be in great health, although he probably had trouble believing Mommy and Daddy when we bragged about what a happy, easy baby she's been.

After being stripped, weighed, measured, poked, and having lights shined in her eyes in ears, Katherine got 3 shots. Not even patty cake could cheer her up at the doctor's office, but some ice cream when we got home sure seemed to help. :-)

We certainly aren't complaining-- we'll take a screaming baby as long as she's healthy any day! We hope you understand that we didn't try to get pictures during the appointment, and decided to just share Katherine playing with her birthday car from GG instead!

Well, Katherine, it looks like you're ready for the road! I agree with mommy, blogging is better than screaming, especially for those of us who live farther away ;-) When it comes to helping us feel better, ice cream beats patty cake any day.
