Claire Bear Update

Claire had her five year check up this week and she was very relieved to hear she doesn't need to get any shots until she's 11. She distinctly remembers getting 5 shots last year, one was a make up shot and one was a new required one I guess. Ouch.

She is in the 95th percentile for her height and weight. The doctor said something that plays right into my "Law and Order" fears - she said that we will need to protect Claire from people who think she is older than she is because of her height. Like my paranoia needs any encouragement...

 Anyway, she is healthy and growing as she should. Her new tooth is already coming in. I am glad we got a few recent pictures of her with all her baby teeth, like this one from her kindergarten school pictures. The big kid teeth change their smile and their looks so much.
