Kate's Nine Month Well Visit

My little baby is growing so fast. She is already 9 months old!! We had our 9 month well visit this week. She is a rather serious little girl. During her Dr appt she simply sat still and very seriously, watched the doctor check her out. She did not try to move, cry, talk or laugh; just watched his every move. We then had to go to the lab to have some blood drawn to check for lead levels. I thought - OK, she is NOT going to like this at all. I put in her pacifier and started SHHShing in her ear - for distraction. The nurse pricked her finger - no crying - and began to squeeze her finger to put blood into the vial - still no crying. Only once did she squinch her face, turn red and eyes watered, but still no crying. She did look over at the nurse once and let out a sigh - as if to say - You are really taking time out of my play time!



She makes me laugh - I love it!
