One Year Doctor's Appointment

This morning we took Ella to her one year doctor's appointment. She did pretty good but got a lot of shots - 4 of them, right in the chunky thighs, plus a finger prick test to check her blood. She was very, very upset and it was the hardest to console than any other time of getting vaccines.

She weighs 18 lbs 11 oz, and is 28 inches long - so, she still needs to sit backwards in the carseat a while longer but we know she's ready to turn around as soon as she can!

Ella is very healthy and the only thing we need to work on is getting her to drink more milk...she prefers water or juice but from now on, it is just milk until she has had enough for the day.

So, another good appointment and I am very happy that we managed to get through her entire first year with just one ear infection and a few colds.
