Kaitlyn Ryan

Kaitlyn had her 1st dentist appointment yesterday at MUSC. Dr. Mary took a look at all of her teeth, which Kaitlyn did not really like. Then came her fluoride treatment. Dr. Mary was really quick, but Kaitlyn just screamed the whole time. She was fine once it was all over though. Now her teeth are even stronger. And Dr. Mary noticed that her molars are starting to make their way through!

Today was Kaitlyn’s 1 year check up with her Pediatrician. Kaitlyn weighs 22 lbs and is 28.5 inches long. She is in the 75 percentile for head circumference and weight, and in the 50 percentile for height. Her Dr. was very impressed with Kaitlyn, and said she looks like a normal one year old. We are going to continue to work on feeding Kaitlyn more table food, and now we get to start transitioning her to whole milk… horray! No more formula! Poor baby had to have 5 shots though! 4 of them were normal 1 year check up shots, but then the Dr. recommended getting her flu shot, so 4 turned into 5. Luckily the nurse was pretty quick, but Kaitlyn was definitely NOT happy. We also got the OK to move Kaitlyn to a front facing carseat. We went to Babies R Us and Target today hoping we would walk away with one, but even though Sean did all of his research I couldn’t settle on one. So we are still working on picking one out. Here is a quick picture from her Dr’s appointment this afternoon, you can see a few more on my Flickr (www.flickr.com/tori_ryan).
