15 Month Check up

Ok here are her stats.. 21lbs 9oz and 30 3/4 inches long...so she grew and 1 1/2 inches and gained 2 pounds in the last three months. The doctor said her toe was fine just keep putting neosporn (sp?) on it. So Mark went out and bought some right after the appointment. Wow what a difference. When I gave her a bath last night the toe looked 100% better than it did yesterday.
Here she is putting stuff around her neck...she loves wearing stuff around her neck. I think it is from the cord being wrapped around her neck for long during labor.


She loves pointing to the stuff on the poster and saying what it is. I am telling you all, Baby Sign works. The Doctor and the nurses all commented on how advanced she was in her verbal skills. I am sure it helps also that she has to "talkers" that live with her.



Now for another scary mommy moment. Last night Mark was helping me put the Junior League Yard sale things into our garage. Lydia was hanging out pretending to eat rocks ( and more than likely really trying to eat a few). I hear a car coming up our hill so I look to see where Lydia was...um right beside the road!!! She was still in our driveway technically but one or two baby steps and she would have been in the road. Thankfully the car was coming up slowly (which does not happen often) and I was able to grab her...and it ended up being a guy I went to high school with. So I am sure that he has gone and told everyone what a horrible and irresponsible mother I am...Stuff just happens so quickly! She had been right beside us eating rocks!!!! I used to look at some of these stories I read about parents and think "how in the hell did they let that happen to their kid?"...they didn't , they just blinked!
