The Hays Family: Time for a check up

She was determined to get the bandage off

Today we had Kenadie’s 9 month check up! I can't believe it has been NINE months since we first held her in our arms! We had to wait quite ahile and had time to take lots of pictures! She made a MESS of the mirror and she kept trying to eat her reflections. Doctor finally came and she was healthy as always still tiny. She weight exactly 17 pounds which put her in the 20% for her weight and measured in at 24 3/4 inches putting her in the 35% for her height. She is a petite little thing with ALOT of attitude! She did pretty good with everything she wants to be on the go 24-7 so she was kind of a wigge worm. She did good until the doctor wanted to look in her mouth that was a fight she was NOT going to open her mouth willingly. The doctor got it open and won the battle which of course mad her mad and brought on the tears but she got over it fast. No shots today which was nice and I am sure she appreciated it too! She did get a little poke in the foot so they could test her iron which turned out great as well. I was totally in shock when the nurse came in to get the blood she cleaned off Kenadie’s toe with alcohol and poked it, she let the blood flow out for a little bit so they could get a good count and all the while Kenadie just sat there. IT WAS AMAZING! She even let the nurse put on the cotton and Band-Aid! Of course after the Band-Aid was on she tried to pull and chew it off. Needless to say it was short lived. Pretty much all is well in healthy in the Hays house except for poor Kellen who has a bit of a cold. There is one other thing that totally boggles my mind and that is some of you reading this I am sure have witnessed the mega fits Kenadie throws when she has to get in the car seat, but for some odd reason the car seat I swear is her favorite toy? Is that just not weird!
