15 Month Well Baby

Monday was Keely's 15 month well baby appointment. Happy to say that Keely is doing great! She is now 22 lbs and 31 in. She has moved up in her height and on the same track for her weight and head. The doctor was so pleased with our friendly little girl. He couldn't believe that she just sat there as he listened to her heart and would run up to him and let him hold her. Such a good patient she is. We got the go to visit the dentist now that we have 12 teeth! She has got 4 molars now. Dr. Sikora gave us a recommendation for a pediatric dentist in town that we're waiting to hear from. She still has a very innocent heart murmur that he listens to when we visit but so far nothing to be alarmed by. While there Dr. Sikora also gave us some tips to help with the arrival of Brayden. Just some things to lookout for to cope with jealousy and how to handle all the changes. We've been trying to make sure we talk to Keely daily about her brother and that a baby is coming to our house. As the Doctor pointed out, she takes in a lot more than we know. We can't wait to see how big sister will be and know she'll be a great helper for Mamma.

Meanwhile, I had my appointment today. 37 weeks now! Everything still looks good. Brayden still has not dropped, so it doesn't look like he'll be arriving at least in the next few days. His heart rate is still strong and things are still looking great for me. Brayden seems to be very active when we go to our appointments. I went ahead and filled out my pre-admission paperwork today so when I do go into labor all the paperwork is taken care of. Now we're reaching the point where we just wait. Thankfully I have Keely to keep me occupied which makes the time really speed up. Hopefully in just a couple of weeks we'll be announcing the arrival of #2!
