9 Month Check-Up

March 23, 2009

Mackenzie,

We took you to your nine month check-up this past Monday and are happy to say that all is well - for the most part. You still have a bilateral ear infection (you've had the same one since the end of January when we had to take you to the ER!) so the doctor gave you stronger antibiotics and we're hoping these work. You are also still sniffly & snotty, but the doctor says this is normal for children in corporate daycare. The good news is you will be one tough cookie in kindergarten! Once again, the doctor and nurses were very impressed with your strength. You did have to get a heel prick and you did NOT enjoy it at all, but you calmed down pretty quickly.

And as for your stats:

Weight: 19 pounds, 4 ounces (50-75%)
Height: 30" (95% - I think they may have mis-measured! Your mommy is way too short for you to be in the 95th percentile!)
Head: 17 1/2" (50-75%)

You are one healthy girl! All in all, it was a wonderful visit. We are so blessed and thankful for your health.

We love you!
Mommy & Daddy
