Teddy Bear Appt

Emilee's Teddy Bear Appt (follow up with the neonatologist from the NICU) was this afternon.  Granny Katie, Taylor and Emilee met me at work and then we ate lunch at Chick-fil-a before heading to the hospital for the appt.  She gets all her measurments done and she also gets an OT eval (motor skills & development) and ST eval (speech therapy). First her measurements.  She was still 29 ins long but she only weighed 19 lbs 4.4 oz.  So for now no big girl carseat. I think she really weighs the same or a little more than she did at her one year well check... because at the pedi's office she stays in her diaper for the weight, but today she was completely without clothing. But that's ok. After all that we got to see Dr. McGowan who is just so much fun and just the way he treats the kiddos it's obvious that he just LOVES babies. So things went well. She is of course a little delayed in her speech so they want to see her again at 18 months. So our next appt with them is the end of February. 

Other than that we spent most of the afternoon playing outside in the 100 degree weather. Needless to say it was spent in a diaper with some type of activity involving water. Whether it was in her pool, water in a bucket being carried around and acciently dumped or a water bottle that she was "drinking" out of that got dumped onto the porch and then splashed in. Anyway it came - it was at least good for a slight cool down in this Texas heat.  


I noticed this huge bloom on Emilee's Hibiscus plant

Wait until next year, flowers won't have a chance. She'll be picking everyone she can get to.
Love, Granny Katie
