One Year Wellness Visit

Grace had her one year old wellness visit with her pediatrician on Wednesday of this week, a few days before her one year birthday. Grace weighs 20.3 pounds (25th percentile) and is 30 inches long (75th percentile). The doctor asked many questions to see whether Grace is meeting her developmental milestones. Once question asked was whether Grace is able to pull herself up to a standing position and whether she is able to stand while holding on to furniture....we simply smiled and said "yes." A few seconds later Grace ran across the examination room to examine a bead toy. We think she's mastered pulling to stand and the doctor wholeheartedly agreed! We are so proud of our Gracie Girl. She did an amazing job at this visit by showing all that she has learned and mastered over the past year. Grace greeted everyone with "hi," she said all of her animal sounds, and even gave the nurse a big smile and a "bye-bye" after her vaccinations.

What was the Doctor thinking?
He must not meet a lot of babies like Grace at one year old!
I somtimes find it hard to believe that you are almost one, too!
I Love You,
