...and yes I am aware that she is 5 months old! Somehow Avery's doctor's appointments got messed up early on because her 2 month appointment should have been around Christmas. Due to the holidays it was pushed into January, which then pushed her 4 month appointment into March. So now, we're back on track and we'll be visiting Dr. Rufa again in 5.5 weeks!
Now back to today's visit. Dr. Rufa told me that Avery is growing beautifully. Avery was all smiles and coos while with the doctor, but the nurse came in and gave her 3 shots and she was not too thrilled with that at all. But even with 3 horrible shots in the legs, Avery cried, fell asleep and then slept for a good portion of the afternoon.
Avery's stats are as follows:
Height: 25.5" in. (65th percentile)
Weight: 17 lbs. 9 oz. (95th percentile - and not starving)
Head: 17 in. (83rd percentile and still not as big as her big sister's)
We got the go ahead on solids. We'll be starting with rice cereal tonight. Since I will be making Avery's food we probably won't start those until next week!
Until next time - here are some Easter themed "I got some shots today" photos!!
