Kyleigh's update

Today Kyleigh went for her pre-op appointment at Duke to prepare for next weeks surgery to replace the tube in the left ear. It was quick and painless. She measured at 70 cm---wowsers!!! She is getting so long. They said she was at the 50%tile for her length now.

We then headed over to the eye clinic to have her glasses adjusted so that they would not pinch her head and they would stay on better. That only took a short while and we were on our way back to Greensboro.

Once in Greensboro we headed to see Dr. O'Kelley the pediatrician. They re-weighed her and she weighed 13 lbs 8oz (6 more oz than this morning but was probably the diaper and clothes). Dr. O'Kelley was pleased with her growth and how much healthier she appeared to him. He commented that her tone was more fleshy and she was a happier baby today than he had ever seen. That is because he always sees her when she is sick. Anyways, he also said at her 9 month checkup in 2 weeks that we could get the flu vaccine and then later in October when it became available she could get the H1N1 vaccine as well.

All good news!
