I know this is a bit late, but with being on vacation we didn't get her to the Pediatrician for her Well Baby visit until Jan. 7th. Anyway, she's weighing in at a whopping 20lbs even (40%) my biggest one year old so far. And measuring at 30 inches (75th%), just like her sisters tall and skinny! She has 4 molars that are trying to poke thru so she's been a bit cranky of late.
(haha of late! Let's just say she can be cranky a lot!)
Her skin is doing much better. She got another staph infection just before we left for New York and the bonehead PA we took her to prescribed an oral steroid instead of an antibiotic. The steroid did nothing for her except allow the staph infection to spread to her mouth, hands, feet an farther up her leg. We ended up at the local Urgent Care and they were baffled as to why they would have prescribed her a steroid and not an antibiotic (the joys of dealing with military drs!). The antibiotic worked immediately and within two days her sores were healing. We took her to a dermatologist when we got home who prescribed us a stronger cream to clear up the lasting effects of the infection and a shampoo for her head. He told us she has a severe case of eczema and possibly psoriasis on her head. We've been pretty good about keeping eggs out of her diet and the last few days her skin has been great! With the exception of her cheeks and chin all of a sudden having issues (Olivia's cheeks had the same problem) we've been pretty happy with the results since being home. Once her skin is all fixed up we're looking at trying some oral supplements to hydrate her skin from the inside out to try and keep the itching under control. Other then that she is healthy and cute and for the most part happy.

eating an Oreo...who knew they're egg free!
She's always been a little bit of a comedian, but she's really been hamming it up lately! She has this silly little grin she likes to do. She's also started playing this game where she hands you something but wont let it go and then pulls it way, then she laughs! It's really funny!
So gross! she was drinking the water out of this fish! It took me a minute to figure out why she kept putting it back in her mouth when I took it away. Duh, mom! I finally just had to remove it from the tube. She is a persistent little thing!
This is the silly little grin I was talking about. She scrunches up her nose and makes this funny sniffing sound.

She is sooo cute! Happy late birthday, Miss K! I love the cute pics (and, to make you feel better, we just went through the whole drinking fish water thing, too. I think it was an octopus. Gross! Made me realize how grody tub toys can get!)
