Fever

Lily,
Yesterday I got a call from your school saying you have a fever. You had a fever of 100.8 and just weren't your normal happy self. I'm hoping it's just from these teeth that are about to break through the gum. We are all ready for these teeth to go ahead and make their appearance. Today I stayed home from work to take care of you. You are still a little tired and don't feel like playing much. You have recently shown much interest in Sesame Street. You are pretty happy relaxing and watching Elmo.

I realized I never updated your 12 months stats from your doctor visit. Here they are:
Weight: 21.7 lbs (57% of growth percentile)
Height: 2 ft. 6 in. (78% of growth percentile)
Head circumference: 17.7 in. (50% of growth percentile)

I guess that means you are tall and your weight is leveling out. When we went to the doctor they looked in your ear and discovered you had an ear infection. This explains your crabbiness several weeks ago.

You are starting to find humor in things. I said Bowie's name in a funny way yesterday and you laughed and laughed. Anytime Mommy or Daddy finish singing you a song you clap for us (even when I think I had successfully sung you to sleep). You have developed a strong attachment to 2 blankets and like to drag them around the house. You are so close to walking. Yesterday you stood up without holding on to anything! You consistently say "Bow" for "Bowie" and "Sca" for "Scout." You are starting to imitate words and sounds. As of lately you are much more of a toddler than a baby. That transition was fast.

Hope you feel better soon!
Love,
Mama
