I'm a bit concerned about her weight. A few months ago she was weighing around 25.5 pounds. She has only gained 1 lb 12 oz since her first birthday, and just 6 ounces in the past 6 months. Plus, they weighed her with her clothes on AND a wet diaper. That just doesn't seem like it could be enough weight gain. I don't know where she gets it from since I was well over 30 pounds when I was her age :) She has always been on the small side, and since the doctor said everything is okay, I'll try not to worry.
The good thing is that Hannah did not need any immunizations! But, the doctor wanted to check her hematocrit levels since she was a bit anemic last time. She was quite a trooper while they pricked her big toe and took blood and fortunately her hematocrit was in the normal range this time.
We don't have to go back until she turns 3! And wouldn't it be a miracle if we were able to go the next year without any reason to see the doctor?! I'll keep my fingers crossed!

That would be a miracle! I hope you get it! Hannah is about the size of my girls. That's neat. I didn't realize that since I've only met her that one night on her way to bed. :-) I'm sure she's perfectly fine. If the doc is not worried, then there's no reason for you to worry. :-) You've got a perfectly healthy, beautiful, little girl!
