2 Year Well Baby Visit

Lauren's 2 Year check up went very well this morning. Several of the nurses commented on how tall she is as we walked in. She wasn't very interested in being weighed or measured like a big girl, so we resorted the old-school baby scale and measuring on the table. Maybe next time! She didn't get any shots and impressed the doctor with her vocabulary and diction. A verbal kid? Mine?? (smile)

Stats:

Height 37.5 inches
Weight 34 lbs 4oz.

Still way off the charts in height/weight. They calculated her BMI and she's at about the 50th percentile, especially when considering her height. The doctor predicts she will continue to get taller but her weight will slow down until she's long and lean like her Mommy.

The convential wisdom says to double their height at age 2 to determine their approximate adult height....uh-oh! That would mean 6'3" (or 5'15" as Todd puts it!). Let's hope she slows down on the height thing too...that's WAAAAY tall for a girl! Watch our son will be 5'6" (giggle!)

So glad she's healthy! My Jellybean is also extremely tall for her age -- now we're having the problem that people think she's older than she is and therefore expect more of her. That's something to be aware of with Lauren.
