Pediatrician

Gemma had her followup appointment with the pediatrician today for her head movement thing that she used to do. She hasn't done it for ages and I only noticed it the other day for the first time in months. Anyways, obviously that is good and then she just wanted to go over Gemma's development and growth, which we did. 

She weighed in at 10.23 kg (22.5 pounds) and 29.5 inches. As always, she screamed her heart out getting weighed and measured; she hates that part for some reason.

Developmentally, she is doing great, which is always nice to hear a professional say. Dr. Klym said that babies Gemma's age should be able to say between 2 and 4 words - well, Gemma can say a lot more than that! I was/am a little worried about Gemma's speech at times because of our bilingual household, but so far she seems to be doing well. In some cases, she understands both english and korean for the same object or command.

So she is good. But because she is still doing the head thing once in a blue moon, we're going back again in 1 year, which is crazy to think about - I will have a 2-year-old and a 6-month old! Yipes!
