18 month check-up report

Ming Ming at 18 month:
Height - 35 inch (89cm), >97%
Weight - 26 lb (11.8kg), 75%
Head - 47 cm, 50-75%

She grew 10cm in the past six months, grew even faster than her first year. [Ming Ming, slow down, u are going to be a giant!]

She only had a hep A vaccine.

Ming Ming is obviously different compared to our last time in the doctor's. She still cried as soon as we entered the room. But when the doctor arrived and tried to interact with her, Ming Ming responded. She cheered herself and said "good job" and clapped her hands following the doctor's initiative, even though her good cheer was constantly intervened by fear. She would cheer, paused and wanted to cry, clapped her hands again as the doctor tried to divert her attention. The doctor's visit is usually a straight crying affair from beginning to end. Today I was amazed by how she has grew and matured.

Tonight we have dinner with Julian and his parents. Ming Ming kept saying "O-car" during the whole evening. But as soon as Julian left, she started asking for Julian for the following days. =)
