Yes, another picture of her eating. I wanted to get a shot of her with her homemade \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Lainey\u00e2\u20ac\u009d bib, made by Kelly B from my Ladybug believers yahoo group. Isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t it the cutest? In case you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re wondering, that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s broken up blueberry muffins on her plate.<\/p>\n

Lainey had her first check-up at the pediatrician today and it went well. She was very cooperative, and it was a long appointment! She weighs 23.5lbs. and is 32 inches long\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6that puts her 25% for height and 50% for weight on the US charts. She\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a healthy little thing :) The poor girl had a TB test (which they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll read the results on on Monday) and 4 vaccinations! Her face turned a nice shade of purple somewhere between shot 2 and 3. She recovered quickly, though. We were told that we can start transitioning her to milk\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6we might gradually switch her to US toddler formula (she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still on the Chinese) and then slowly replace it with milk. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sure she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll love it. We also asked about a small scar that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s on her upper left arm. The pediatrician said it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a mark from her small pox vaccine, which they stopped giving to children in the US sometime in the 60\u00e2\u20ac\u00b2s! That surprised us.<\/p>\n

Oh, and I forgot to mention what happened yesterday\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6she pulled out a can of whipped cream from the fridge door and it fell directly on her big toe. Almost immediately, it turned purple under her toenail. (hmm\u00e2\u20ac\u00a62 purples in one post!) So, today the pediatrician used this torture-looking tool to BURN a hole in her toenail, which relieved the pressure. It didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t hurt her a bit! But, she said Lainey might lose her toenail.<\/p>\n

She is scheduled for several tests and bloodwork on Monday and more shots in 4 weeks. We could have done the extra testing today, but we thought we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d give the girl a break!<\/p>\n

I told Randy that we should give her Motrin (because of her shots) everyday, because she was in SUCH a great mood today. She had a great time playing and even starting picking up the sign for \u00e2\u20ac\u0153more\u00e2\u20ac\u009d at lunchtime.<\/p>\n

Tennis anyone?<\/p>\n

Even with her big toe bleeding (see her sock), she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still this happy<\/p>\n

Tonight was the girls last Upward cheering game for the season. They did great, and after missing the last 3 games because of our trip, I was so happy to be able to watch them shine. Marley is 1st on left and Abbey is 6th.<\/p>\n

Lainey loved her first basketball game! She really watched the game and her sisters cheering\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6she was clapping, waving, and smiling at everyone. The girls squad did a lot of praying for us before and during our trip, and we are so thankful\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6they were thrilled to see Lainey and she was eating up the attention!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
