9 Month well baby check up info and stats

We just got home from Ellery's 9 month well baby check

here's the stats to start with:

20lbs even
29 inches long

Dr. Stephens said that she looks just perfect. .. ..she's probably going to be walking soon (yeah we knew that one) due to her extremely good balance (she stood for a minute by herself at the doctors)

she's getting her eye teeth at the top - i think it's the eye teeth. . the fangy looking ones???!! which is what happened to me too (although I actually got those before the bottom ones LOL)

so that's pretty much about it.....

she did have to have 2 shots - her last in the hep B series and she got her first dose of flu vaccine as well. .. and she hardly cried at all!!

she'll have the flu vaccine booster at her 1 year appointment and i was relieved to hear that Dr. Stephens doesn't administer the MMR vaccine until 15 months rather than 12 :)

She does have to have some lab work - she's having the 9 month lead screen (i think this is a state requirement) and then they're allergy testing her. . so she'll have the RAST test for milk, soy and one other thing. The wait time at the lab was 45 minutes today and since it was already 4pm I decided not to wait. . my parents said they would take her tomorrow.

All in all it was a great appointment :) :)
