12 month check up

Carrie Ella went in for her 12 month visit today.  Stats are:

Height: 30.5" (90th)
Weight: 21 lb 14 oz (77th)
Head: 45.2 cm (57th)

She had her second flu booster, chicken pox & varicella shots.

She's doing really well! 

The doctor is keeping an eye on her breast buds and line on her belly which can be indications of high estrogen levels.  If the buds and line haven't gone by her 15 month check up we'll go see have an Endocronologist to have some tests run to make sure nothing odd is going on.   In the meantime I need to make sure there's no lavendar or tea tree oil in any products she uses, as I guess that can cause high estrogen levels.  Who knew....

Other than that, she is sleeping really well, going down at 8:00 PM getting up between 7:00 and 8:00 AM.  She's walking better and better every day, a lot less crawling going on and she's eating like a champ.  We've been offering whole milk in a sippy cup for over a week now and she's only just starting to drink it.  Now to wean her from the formula/bottle.  We cut the morning bottle a week ago, tomorrow we'll try no bottle before her afternoon nap.  We'll see how it goes.  The hope is to have her off the bottle completely in 3 weeks.

She's becoming more and more fun every day.  Looking forward to a relaxing weekend with her and Sean :-)
