12 Month Doctor's Appointment

On Thursday, Eileen had her 12 month doctor's appointment.

Watching Yo Gabba Gabba on the iPad during the drive to Monroeville.

Unrelated note:  The iPad is being held up for Eileen's viewing by the iLatch case.  It. Is. Awesome. and it absolutely saved our day!  Also, the iLatch inventor is a Monroeville native, which is the only reason that I am ahead of the curve on getting one :)

Even though she got five (!) shots, she was so cheerful and was a delightful little patient.

Our 6 lb. 9 oz., 20.25" newborn is now a 22 lb. 8 oz., 31.5" one year old!  She's in about the 75th percentile for weight and in the 98th percentile for height.  Eileen has grown 1.5" since her 9 month appointment!

Eileen loved smiling for Ms. Monta (Dr. Powell's nurse) and for Dr. Powell- she really enjoyed the attention she got during her check-up.

And she didn't cry much during her shots.

She did love having her temperature taken with the ear thermometer.  After her shots, Ms. Monta took her temperature two more times to get her smiling again.

 After the appointment, we fed Eileen her favorite lunch- chicken strips and french fries.

And she played at the law office all afternoon.  She isn't acting like the shots bothered her, but I'm hoping they will cause her to sleep soundly tonight!
