We've hit a Milestone!

For those that know us, we all know that Gracie is "petite" to say the least. With that said, yesterday was Miss Gracie's 5 year check up and she has finally hit 30 lbs. Yee-Ha! We have been waiting for that number FOREVER and it has arrived! Granted she is still only in the 3 percentile for heighth and weight, but Dr. Jimeno is please with her growth. She is definitely height/weight proportinate for "Gracie". She grew 2 1/2 inches since her last appt. which is what they look for. However, one thing about her weight/size is she has a bit of low blood pressure ~ nothing to worry about though. Gracie also had her hearing checked -- all good. Her eyes checked -- 20/30 (may need to have them checked by an eye dr. before school starts). Her back was straight. She did beautifully through all those checks. However....the peeing in a cup, getting her blood taken and the 3 shots did not go over real well (McDonald Chicken nuggets and an ice cream cone made it much better!). The good news is, no more shots until she is 11!
Hope everyone else is well and has a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Hi wonderful family. Your comments were all great! She is still working her "bruise" on her leg from one of the shots. DRAMA QUEEN. Carleena, all I can think about is when your dr. remodeled and changed the blood taking bed to a chair...you were like "I don't think so....I gotta lay down". Yup....Gracie is prepping to be just like her Auntie. Wishing everyone a great day tomorrow. Love ya!
