Zoe's Six Year Checkup

Zoe had her six year checkup on June 14, 2012.  I don't know why, but I had been nervous about this appointment for some reason.  Maybe it's because she's just getting older and I still worry all the freakin' time.  Who knows?!?  Anyway, she had a great checkup with Dr. Beveridge who was beyond thrilled with her!  To say that our girl has had a growth spurt would be an understatement.  She has grown almost four inches in a year and she has put on 8 pounds!  Oh. My. Word.  Here are the stats for this year.  Drum roll please......

Height - 47 1/2 inches

Weight - 53 pounds

Eyesight - 20/25 in each eye

Hearing - Normal

Heart Rate/ Blood Pressure - Slow & 90/48

Dr. Beveridge said that her heart rate was slow and great just like an athlete, which was great to hear.  She said that she couldn't be happier with Zoe and was reminiscing about how Zoe didn't come off of breathing treatments for the entire first year of her life.  Plus, she was born prematurely and spent time in the NICU.  All of those factors could have affected her growth dramatically, but they didn't.  Instead, our girl has always been above the bar and for that we are forever grateful.  

While we were there, Zoe had her gown on and proceeded to get in Dr. Beveridge's chair and imitate her.  She said, "Hey, this is Dr. Beveridge.  What's wrong with ya?"  It was hysterical and I made Zoe repeat it for her.  I'm so glad our doctor has such a great sense of humor because she laughed and laughed.  Our girl is quite the entertainer!
