18 months old

On Dec 10th 2007, Speck turned 18 months old. She's gone from a little baby into an energetic little Toddler. I call her my little person. She's turned our lives upside down and inside out and it's all in the best way possible. Her laughter, whining (yes she does that from time to time), smiles, frowns, giggles, sulks, and all other expressions make my heart melt. She takes my breath away. Could she be any cuter ?!?!?!

















Below is the drama that ensued at the Dr. Barry's office at her 18 months check up which happened to be on her 18 month Birthday. Just to be clear this picture was captured before the doctor showed up. We started off the visit in this fashion. I hope all future trips are not this dramatic coz at the end of the day the Doc/Nurses/Office Staff can and will only take so much before they politely ask you to leave and never come back. Health wise speck is doing great. She's in the 20th %tile for her weight and 50th %tile for her height (go figure). All in all we get a thumbs up for effort. And then come the obligatory immunizations. OH!! THE HORROR!!! (I can relate though, mommy hates needles too)
