Tater Tot went to her 15 month well-child doctor visit today and all is well. Of course she screamed through 99% of the visit but that is to be expected from her. I knew she would so we just talked (shouted) louder in between my renditions of “The Wheels On The Bus”.

I was relieved that she was average in terms of height and weight since the neonatologist had warned me, “She eats too much” at the visit to the developmental clinic. And her pediatrician basically said that he couldn’t be any more pleased with her growth and development. There were two things on his checklist that she hadn’t quite accomplished yet but she is well on her way. I sometimes forget that she was born prematurely because she doesn’t seem to have any real delays to speak of. She’s getting two molars which could explain some of the not-napping and fussy behavior as of late. But it really hasn’t been as bad as I expected it to be with the molars. I had heard that the molars were soooo much worse than the other teeth. So far so good. Hope I didn’t just jinx myself.

Other than the doctor visit, we played and played and played some more. And she took two, count ‘em, TWO naps today! And went to bed at her regular time. Imagine that! I am grateful. Well, I’m off to work on a Shutterfly.com photobook for Father’s Day….
