check-up check-in: Anna Ruth 15 months old

I never thought this baby would be described as "small for her age."


But it happened today at her 15-month check-up.  Anna Ruth's doctor said, "well Mom, it looks like your baby is on the small size for her age."  Anna Ruth weighs 21 pounds 11 oz. which is in the 32% and is 29 inches tall (although I think she is an inch taller) which is in the 12%.  
Anna Ruth is perfectly healthy and received the last of her baby immunizations today.  She handled it like a champ.  She cried for 15 seconds max after her shot...she truly is our Happy Baby.

She has started napping on a cot at school.  The first week has been difficult with very short naps but today she took a near 2 hour nap on her cot.  WAY TO GO GIRL!  Her teacher sent me and excited text to share the news of the good nap.  
Anna Ruth's walking is coming along well.  She still prefers to crawl if she needs to get somewhere fast, like away from her brother but is walking more and more each day.  
If you ever need a pick-me-up come by and we'll try to get Anna Ruth to blow you a kiss.
