Today Ansley had her 2 year check-up. She did surprisingly(is that a word?) well considering she ended up having to get 1 shot. Normally, Ansley gets upset as soon as they call her name and we beginning walking back. But not today, she just walked with us and then stood on the scale (which she loves because there is a Curious George sticker on it) and then she got measured and we went to our room. I had 2 things I wanted to talk to the doctor about, Ansley's speech and eating. For those of you who have met Ansley, you know she is a very laid back girl. She likes to sit back and take it all in. She has always been advanced with her motor skills but lacked in the verbal skills (this is just what I have thought). According to the doctor she is right on track! YEAH!!! She said if she wasn't saying at least 20 words and not beginning to put 2 words together then they would be worried. Considering she was saying 15 words at 18 months we have definitely passed the 20 word mark. So that is great! With all this worrying, I know she is going to wake up one day and just start talking, and then we will not be able to get her to stop :)
As for the eating issues, she said she is fine. She was happy to hear she likes fruits and veggies but we are working to get her to eat some meat. I just try hard to get her to eat other things so she doesn't end up like me. I am not a big meat lover and I was a very picky eater growing up (still am).... But according to the scale, Ansley is doing just fine!
The best part is.....we don't have to go back until her 3 yr check-up! YEAH!!! Obcourse I am sure we will be back there for something before then :)
Well here are the latest stats:
Weight: 29 lbs. (it was probably more like 28 since she was fully clothed and had her shoes on), she is still in the 50-75 percentile
Height: 35 1/4 inches, in the 90 percentile (dropped from 95%)
