15 Month Check-Up

Noel had her 15 month check-up this past week! Besides 4 shots (one being a flu shot), the doctor checked her over and said she seemed to be doing ok. He was still a bit concerned about her weight. We were told to keep trying to bulk her up and we have another weight check in a month. We have been mixing in Pediasure with her milk to try and add calories. Our girl just isn't much of an eater, but we are trying! We will see what he says in a month!

He was pleased to hear about Noel's progress from the physical therapy. The doctor noticed the same thing that her physical therapist did, that Noel's left leg is stronger than her right. Her right foot also turns a bit funny. So, we might be looking at some foot braces eventually. But he wants to wait and see what happens when she starts walking. He was happy to hear that she is crawling and pulling up on furniture!

And here are a few pictures of our crazy little girl!

Shoes are still VERY big with Noel. She loves to try and put them on and take them off. She will bring you a pair of shoes and point to her feet. She loves looking stylish!

Noel loves to crawl back and forth on the couch. She looks down over the arm rest at her toys, then crawls to the other side. 

Her doll Rian (pronounced Ryan) plays with Noel on the couch! 

Here is Noel modeling one of her Halloween outfits. She already has the serious model pout down! 

Drink up!
