Sick...again

Last Wednesday (Jan. 18th), Ella woke up at 2am with a fever. Though I enjoy that we get to play outside during this unusually warm January, it in NOT killing all of the germs in the air!! I am hoping for a cold snap to come soon and take care of all the nasty germs floating around. That being said, Ella seemed to have a little virus. This occurred on the morning of her scheduled 4-year check up. I called to change it to a sick appointment so we could rule out strep throat, ear infection, etc. The doctor still did a modified 4-year check up, though we have to return another day to do her vaccinations and hearing test. She was a trooper during the visit; I was proud of her for tolerating the check up when she clearly felt under the weather. Here are her 4-year old stats:

• Weight: 38 lbs (60% percentile)
• Height: 41 3/4 inches (85% percentile)
• BMI: 15 (50% percentile)
