9 Month Check-up

This morning Caroline had her 9 month check-up. She weighs 23 1/2 pounds and is 30 inches long. So she's got 3 1/2 pounds and an inch and a half advantage over Becca at the same age. (I don't remember exactly what Ben's 9 month stats were but I *think* he was 24 pounds and 31 inches). She got a clean bill of health, a hepatitis B vaccine, a flu shot, and her hemoglobin checked. She didn't even notice the finger prick, and I'm not sure she noticed the shots either, but she was already crying for that, having been removed from her bottle and returned to the exam table. She certainly didn't cry any harder, anyway. I am pretty sure all that thigh fat must be good for something :)

Oh and for those of you who are wondering, that's >97th percentile all around!
