So today was a big day for doctor visits. I knew it was Clay's 9 month check-up but when we got to the doctor's office they reminded me that Clara hadn't had her 3 yr check-up. Luckily they were able to squeeze her in while we where already there. Both kids got 2 immunizations (Clara was great for the first one, but after that wanted nothing to do with a second. Poor Clay cried for both, but quickly recovered).
Everyone is growing well. Clayton has a head circumference of 18.5 inches (95%), weighs 19 lbs, 4.75 oz (55%), and hold on to your hats: is 30 inches long (100%)! I still can't believe he is so long for his age - no wonder he is already into 12 month clothes.
Clara is 38 lbs (90%) and 39.25 inches (75%). I was a little concerned that her weight percentile was higher than her height, but the doctor assured me that is normal in toddlers who often grow in spurts. The only suggestion she had was to replace some of her apple juice with milk to cut down a few empty calories and promote bone growth. You got it, Doc.
