Stefan took Ava to her 2-year well-child doctor's visit this morning, and Ava met her new pediatrician, Dr. Catherine Bowman. It was a very eventful visit, complete with a vision test, and Ava passed with flying colors. As usual, her height and weight gain followed the previous patterns. She is 34.5 inches tall, in the 68th percentile for kids her age. But her weight is only 23.5 pounds, which is in the 9th percentile. Ava continues to be long-n-lean. The doctor told Stefan that if we hadn't told her Ava was a preemie then she would have never guessed. Ava's development is right on par with other 2 year olds, which is a huge relief for Stefan and I. Ava is reciting her alphabet by repeating after us, and she is getting better with her numbers. She loves her colors, too, and knows that orange goes best with blue (we couldn't resist).
While at the doctor, Ava's bunny received a complete exam, too. Bunny got her ears and eyes checked, her heart listened to, and even got a "boo-boo" bandage. Unfortunately, Ava wasn't able to escape without a poke to her thigh. She didn't need any vaccinations, but she did receive her flu vaccination. Stefan said she was a good sport, although if I know my daughter, I know drama will ensue.
