Karissa went in for a 15-month checkup and a shot. She weighs 21.4 pounds, which is in the 25%, and is 32 inches long, which is 90%. So, in other words, 75% of American babies her age weigh more, while only 10% are longer. Tall and slender. I think she got the best of both of her parents' attributes. For now.
Verbally, she's a bit behind the curve. However, her coordination and much of her physical attributes are very advanced for her age.
She is healthy. She is happy. She does gymnastics on the sofa - she is now climbing on all the furniture and has a weird sense of when she's at the edge and about to fall off, and quickly self-corrects. She kicks and throws balls with enthusiasm, while Kole even now is still getting the hang of it. 2011 was an eventful year for her - four months of it spent in a cranial corrective helmet. Her other updated stat from the doctor visit is a 44.5 cm head circumference, which is 15%. She is long out of that head contraption, her hair is growing longer and more girlie, and she is the most beautiful little girl in the history of the world.
