Then they gave us this ridiculous little gown to put on her. She wore it long enough for me to take a couple pictures and then it was off...What kid doesn't prefer to be naked when they can??
Ingrid is now 24.5 lbs, 32.5 inches long, and is right on track for her growth. All her vocabulary skills amazed the doctor--she can say WAY more than the four words she should be able to say at this age. Her new fave word is "shoe" which she says every time we get ready to go outside. What a smart little whippersnapper :) She had to get a couple shots and luckily they were ones we approve of. Last time we went we didn't want one of the vaccines and we got a bit of snippiness from one of the doctors demanding to know why we refused it. *sigh* I miss my pediatrician in Milwaukee. She was amazing and never EVER made me feel bad for having my own ideas of what was best for my child.

What a big girl. It's amazing to me to see her just chillin, Ben freaks out the whole time we're there. He has never just laid down to let the dr examine him. I had him get an extra shot last time so we're done with shots for a couple years so HOPEFULLY he will stop freaking out about it.
I'm also amazed at how calm she looks! My kids always freak out at the doctor's office. Emma was finally calm at her 3yr checkup, but Johnny won't let them weigh him without putting up a fight...
The doctor told me at her 6mo appt that she would probably start freaking out soon, but she never did. She just sits there and looks at the dr. and is just kind of curious what they're doing. She even laid down nicely for shots, she must not have a good memory as to what happened the last time :)
I had to hold Allie down even when the nurse laid her down just to measure her! She kicked and screamed both the doctor and the nurse the whole visit! You are lucky Ingrid is so calm there! That is awesome that she is saying so many words! Yea, Ingrid! :)
P.S. The gown is hilarious!
She looks so cute in the little gown :)
