Keira had her 12 month check-up today. She weighs in at 18 lbs 10 oz. Mike and I made a bet on her weight like we always do- the loser has to make some dessert for tonight. Mike's guess on her weight was 18 /5 and mine was 18 6. So I was closer and Mike has to make dessert! :o) She is 29 inches long. I love her new Doctor. She is going to finally get allergy tested for foods- namely wheat, dairy and soy. Hopefully they will come out negative and its just an intolerance she will outgrow. And after we allergy test her if her wheezing doesn't go away then she is going to go see a pediatric pulmonologist ( sp?) to rule out asthma. It will be nice to finally have some answers!!!
She only had to get one shot- The DTap shot. I guess there is a national shortage of the HIB vaccine and they are saying that healthy babies 12 months and up don't need another dose. We are holding off on the chicken pox and the MMR vaccines until she is a bit older.
We made a trip Trader Joe's recently and stocked up on healthy snacks. I LOVE that store. So wish there was one closer to our house. We found some new snacks that Keira can have and LOVES.. Veggie puffs and Veggie chips... salty stuff. A true girl.

Keira is a little shrimp! I hope you get some answers to your allergy questions and the wheezing. Didn't know it was still a problem, hope everything is okay! We have a Trader Joes near us but I've never been in, I better check it out.
Did you go to the Trader Joes in Nashua????
ha ha ha
Wow! Keira was bigger and taller than Sarah at her 12 month appt. Sarah weighed in at 18 lb 8oz and was only 28 3/4 inches! They are so similar in their growth patterns.
Wow, I would have guessed Keira weighed more! Haha! She needs to do some catching up if she wants to ride on a seesaw with Samantha - haha! We have our appointment with the allergist on Monday. Hoping for the same news your hoping for. It's all fruits that she has a reaction to now. Keep us updated!
Wow - the 12 month check-up! I hope you get to the bottom of her allergies. Who is her new doctor?
Her new doc is Dr. Oteri- the same doc that Louisa has. She is great.-tanya
