Happy 18 month birthday to Kaylee! We celebrated by taking her to get shots. :-)
She survived yet another doctor's visit this morning. She only got 2 shots today, the flu vaccination being one of them. She's now 34.5" tall (still 99th percentile) and 26.75 lbs (83rd %). She doesn't have to go back for 6 months (for her 2 year visit), and then just once/year from then on. I don't think she's scheduled for any more shots until she's 4 (other than an annual flu shot), but will get her finger pricked next time for some blood tests.
The doctor still said she's super smart (today she even said, "I see a lot of kids and I don't say that to everyone."), so I think Kaylee's setting the bar pretty high for any future siblings... Rather than just pointing to body parts when asked, she named a few of the ones she can say - nose, ear, eye (we didn't think to have her say "heiney," though, hehe) - and when the doctor was leaving she said, "bye, Doctor."
She only cried right after her shots and for less than a minute total, so that wasn't too traumatic. Though she did cry when we first went into the room and the nurse was taking her measurements...guess she knew what was coming!
