Another first

My daughter is growing up too fast. I can't believe it. Every day brings a new skill. Like today . . . I am taking a shower and keep hearing a weird noise. I get out and realize that it is my sweet little girl opening and slamming my bedroom door! Yep, she is tall enough to just reach our lever door handles standing on her tippy-toes. Yet another layer of childproofing is happening in our house now!

She had her 18 month Doctors appointment today. She is 22 lbs. 9 oz. (still quite small - 20th%), and 2'8" tall (getting taller, now in the 44th%!). She is ahead in all of her skills except talking, and if she would open her mouth, I'm sure she would be ahead in that too! The Doctor says she is looking great and she had her last shots for a while -- HALLELUJAH!!!!! She screamed the whole time we were in the room, my sweet-tempered little monkey, but she still managed to charm the nurses and doctor. She is trouble!
