Josephine went to the doctor yesterday for her 1-year checkup. She weighs 18 lbs. 7.5 oz. and is 29 inches long. She's in the 25th percentile for weight and 50th for height. I think her head is 18 cm. in circumference. She got four shots : ( She cried when she got them, but hasn't showed any signs of them bothering her since then. The doctor gave her some medicine for her congestion (that kept getting worse) and is doing much better. She was in a great mood this morning despite waking up at 6am. Mom was not in a great mood because Josephine broke her promise that she would not wake up before the sun comes up. At least she slept all night until then.
She can show us where her hair, eyes (sometimes), nose, teeth, tongue, ears, toes, and bellybutton are. She's also walking more and more. Her new favorite drink is Tropicana's sugar-free, non-carbonated, caffeine-free orange soda (is it still a soda if there's no carbonation?). She'll drink 8 oz. in less than 3 minutes.
Nathan and I got a new video camera so we can put the video on the computer. After Christmas I'll try to put a short video on the web of Josephine. That will take some time for me to figure out how it all works so it will have to wait until after Christmas.
Have a good holiday season!
