18-Month Checkup

On Wednesday, we went to Fargo for Sofia's 18-month well-baby check. Although it has become pretty routine to me, Sofia begs to differ. She doesn't like it when they measure and weigh her, take her blood pressure, or do anything they need to do to record her statistics. My easygoing baby has become a stubborn toddler. *Sigh* It had to happen, she is my child after all. I just hoped that more of Lee's personality would hang on for a little while more. :)

But, I digress. After it was all said and done, she now weighs 26 pounds 13 ounces and is 33 1/4 inches long. She grew taller! I say that with a bit of sarcasm, because the last time we went she "shrunk" between her 12 month and 15 month checkup. And, I thought the nurse had gotten it wrong last time. Turns out, I might have been right. But, I won't gloat...too much. The rest of the appointment went smoothly. Sofia is a perfectly (ahem) normal 19-month old, which is always good to hear. So, we're good to go until her 2-year checkup. I cannot believe that is coming up so fast. She's just growing up too quickly for my taste. But, then again, I love watching her learn and do new things. You can't stop time, so I guess you just hang on for the ride and enjoy it while you can.
