On Tuesday, Maddie had her 13 month appointment. The doctor said she is completely healthy and doing great developmentally too. She had to get four shots (one in each arm and one in each leg - YUCK!). She screamed bloody murder (which was HORRIBLE). They asked us if we wanted her to have a flu shot, and we said yes. Her doctor's office ran out of flu shots last season, so she never got one. Maddie has to go back in one month for a flu shot booster. At this visit, she weighed 22 lbs. 1 oz. and was 30 inches long. She is at the 65th percentile for both weight for age and length for age. She is at about the 62nd percentile for weight for height (which is what really matters). I had to graph this myself because doctors never do (This annoys us RDs - Don't get me started!). Her next check-up is not until February. I am sure she is happy about that!

My poor baby girl, having to have all those shots. One is bad enough but to have to have four at the same time is just awful. Please tell her Grandma loves her and I will give her lots of hugs and kisses the next time I see her. If hugs and kisses don't impress her maybe we can think of some other special treat. Love to all,
Grandma Smith
Poor little Maddie those yucky injections. I feel so bad for our babies having to go thru it but we know it has to be done. Sounds if Maddie is growing and doing wonderful what a cutie pie.
Love Jerry & Sandy
