Leah's one-year appointment was last week, so I thought I'd share her stats. She's still pretty tiny (don't know the percentiles) at 20 lbs and 28", but she's growing and developing just fine. We discovered that she now has seven teeth, rather than the six we had noticed just prior to her birthday. I noticed the seventh one (bottom left) at her appointment.
The LPN referred Leah for a orthopedic consult since Leah turns out her right foot when walking; the LPN wanted to rule out hip dysplasia. (For the record, Leah's hips are perfectly fine; I took her to the orthopedist's yesterday, and she determined that Leah's right hip isn't as strong as her left yet, hence the right leg extroversion.)
Our poor baby also has an ear infection (her first?), so she's on antibiotics. They must be working, since Leah's doing much better about eating and drinking her bottle again. Speaking of bottles, she's no longer on formula. Yeah!!! Next week we'll try weaning her from the bottle to the sippy cup, but that might be a challenge, especially since we still haven't found a sippy cup that she likes. (I hope to pick up a brand a couple friends recommended today at Target.)
All in all, our baby girl is growing just fine.
