A Healthy Lucy Girl!

Lucy had her 9 month check up with Dr. Olivieri today. He said she is perfect - which is always a nice thing to hear. Her heart and lungs sound good, she is developing just as she should be and she is growing well. Lucy now weighs just barely over 19 lbs, which puts her in the 50th percentile for weight. She is 2' 4" tall, which is the 60th percentile for height. Her head measures in at a whopping 18.7 " which is the 99.43 percentile for head circumference! Everyone thought Lucy was so cute and she waved and smiled for each person who talked to or smiled at her, which just made people even more interested in talking to her. The nurse shared with us that the infant flu shot is a two part shot, Lucy needs to come back in 4 weeks for part two. To this, Lucy clapped, raised her arms and made hurrah kind of sounds. I don't think she understood what the nurse was saying! Lucy was a real trooper during her two immunizations. She barely cried and once it was all over, she was smiling and chatting again.
