Sam's 1 year Stats

I took Samantha to the doctor for her well-check. It was a good thing that it was yesterday, because Sam has been pretty fussy the last few days and she has had a fever. It turned out that she had an ear infection and he gave her some antibiotics.
Anyway, her stats are height is 31 inches, over the 90th percentile.
her weight is 19 pounds 10 ounces, 25th percentile.
She dropped in the weight and she really is skinny. The doctor is a little worried so we'll have to hope that she gains a little more weight in the next few months. If anyone has any ideas as to how to get a kid to eat more and be a little less picky, I'm up for ideas. She really makes me stressed and I wish I knew how to help her. Other than that she is healthy and making great progress as far as her skills that she is learning.

Don't stress her weight! It took Aizlyn until she was over 2 to hit 20 pounds. Kids just grow at different rates. As long as you are offering her food often, I wouldn't worry!

I can't believe how big your girls are getting and that Sam is now 1 year old. They are both adorable. I've heard, haven't tried it, but that you put their food in a cupcake pan, different foods in different holes in the pan. For some reason, it is novel and the kids love it. Anyways, congrats on your beautiful girls!!
