Marisa's 1 Year Stats

This morning Marisa had her 1 year doctor's appointment. She did really well! She had to get her finger poked to check her hemoglobin and iron levels and had one shot. She was all happy until Dr. Siefferman laid her down on the table for her shot. She did fine with the finger poke...LOVED the band aid on her finger! Tried to get it off a bunch of times but than started to suck on it! Any way she cried for a little bit after her shot and was happy to see Dr. Siefferman leave the room. She even waved good bye to him!

So here are her stats!

Height: 30 1/2 in - 77th Percentile

Weight: 23# 9oz. - 77th Percentile

Head 18 3/4 in - 96th Percentile (Another kid with a big head! Dr. Sieferman said she needs it to become a Doctor! LOL!)

Only thing that concerned him was that her Hemoglobin was at a 10.xx something and it is suppose to be 12 or higher. I told him that she doesn't eat any meat. She is a VERY picky eater and I can't stand it! So I have to give her half of a Flinestone Complete Vitamins in the morning and at night. He also advised me to try to give her some shredded chicken in her Mac N Cheese until she starts getting used to eating meat. One of the things she loves to eat besides fruit! So we will give that a try. He will check her Hemoglobin again at her 18 month check up.

So there it is...She is still a giant among the girls! LOL!

She's a giant compared to Emily! I don't think Emily was 23# and 30 inches until she was 2.
She's a cute giant! and such a great smile!
