Yesterday, Avery had her four-year check-up. We were reminded how much we love her pediatrician and all of his staff. In fact, the nurse Avery had today will be her Sunday school teacher for the next school year!

Here are Avery’s latest stats:

Weight – 31 pounds, 8 ounces (25th percentile)
Height – 38 inches (10th percentile)

Avery gained 3 pounds, 6 ounces and grew almost 3 inches in the past year. She has met all of the milestones for 4-year-olds. Over the next year, we’ll continue working on her school skills. I was pleased that she already knows most of the things the doctor mentioned…we just need to focus on writing her letters and numbers.

We discussed only one topic: Avery’s eating habits. She eats breakfast and lunch pretty well, but we struggle a lot with dinner. The doctor said everything we expected: she’s healthy and we shouldn’t stress out about dinner. Easier said than done!

Overall it was a great appointment. God has blessed us with a beautiful, healthy little girl!
