Lily went in for her 1 year check-up today.

Height: 30 inches - 75th percentile (Grew 7 1/2 inches)
Weight: 21lbs - 50th percentile (Grew approx. 12lbs)
Head: 18 3/4 inches - 90th percentile (Grew 3 3/4 inches)

Dr. Anderson said that she started her growth spurt early. Usually it begins around 15 months, but Lily started hers at 12 months. He stated that she is doing fantastic both physically and developmentally. He remarked that we should stay away from milk until it is clear that she has developed the enzyme to tolerate it. Otherwise, he complemented me on deliberately caring for Lily's health by drinking soy milk and being well read about child immunizations. It was great! I love Lily's doctor.
