Raising a giant

My baby girl turned FIVE 2 weeks ago. I am not sure how it is possible that she is five, but somehow it happened.

I took her to the doctor's yesterday for her 5 year check-up and to get the rest of the shots she needed to be able to enroll in kindergarten in the fall.

She weighed 47 pounds and was 47 inches tall. That put her way off the top of the charts for height and at the top of the charts for weight. I think I am raising a giant! The dr. was not concerned since she is proportional. I am tall and I come from a family that is really tall, so the height was not unexpected.

I looked at her record book and saw that she grew FIVE INCHES in the past year!! She also got 3 vaccinations. I think people in the next county heard her scream, but she recovered fine and got ice cream on the way home.
