She's 1!!!!!

Oh my oh my how the time has flown. An entire year has gone by since the day little Kinley's was taken from my belly :)

We took Kinley to her Dr. appt on Monday. It was awful. I will never EVER take her by myself again. She had to get a finger poke (more like a poke-n-squeeze for 45 seconds) and 4 shots. After the poke-n-squeeze she wouldn't let the doctor or the nurse near her. She even stared the nurse down and screamed at her after she was done collecting her sample. I felt really bad for her...and for everyone else in the 3-story building. I'm pretty sure they could all hear her screaming. She is on the small size for her age, compared to her previous weight/height check-ins - in the 35th% for height and weight, but still growing. 28.5 inches tall and 20 lbs 4 ozs. Woohoo broke the 20lb mark!! She also has a big head - it's in the 60th%. I guess it's to hold her big brain because she's awfully smart. Her doctor even said she's developmentally at a 15-18 month level instead of 12 months. She's TOO smart. She did really well with her shots - after they were over...and calmed down pretty quick because she caught sight of her shiny silver bandaid!! She sure loves anything shiny. I'm pretty sure we know where that came from.
