Checkup

Anna had her eighteen month checkup today (at nineteen months!) and here are her stats:

21 pounds 11 ounces (15th percentile)
32 inches tall (75th percentile)
19 inch head circumference (95th percentile)

She wasn't due for any shots today but we gave her one anyway. She got a Hepatitis A shot for our upcoming move to Qatar. She already had the Hepatitis B and the Typhoid shot is for ages two and older. Her doctor signed off on the forms we need for medical clearance for Craig's work and then I requested all of her records as well so we can have that information with us in Qatar. I go for my physical on Monday and Craig has already had his.

Anna really did not like interacting with the doctor or the nurse but recovered quickly after each interaction. The only thing I mentioned to the doctor for "concern" was that although she likes getting on and off of a riding toy, she shows no interest in moving forward or backward on her own. She can go backward but the most I've ever seen her go forward is one push. Her doctor didn't think this was a problem but that Anna has been focusing more on intellectual things rather than physical. She does climb up and down the stairs and likes to climb up ladders (with assistance, of course) at the park.
