The Incredible Shrinking Head

Teagan had her 18 month well visit yesterday. Of course, she was pretty sick over the weekend and we had to get her in on Monday since she had a persistent fever and was alarmingly listless. They couldn’t manage to combine the two appointments, so we had to spring for two separate co-pays, and two separate trips from Dogtown to Des Peres. Admittedly, I was a little miffed about that, mostly because her sickness was just a cold and they said we didn’t have to reschedule her well visit, which was the following day. The cold was what brought on the fever, and she has a lingering cough now but she’s acting a lot closer to normal.
Yesterday she weighed in at 22 lbs, 7 ¼ oz, (22%), she’s 31 ½ inches long, (44 %), and her head is 19 inches around, in the 91st percentile, down from the 97th percentile 3 months ago.
How much longer can Rog call her his Big Headed Buddha Belly Baby?

In truth, I don't see me stopping that regardless, especially not so long as she seems to enjoy the rhythmic delivery of the phrase. Sorry for the delete, just correcting a typo.

It's the mothers of the big headed types I feel sorry for.

Well, fortunately her head wasn't that big when she was born. Thank goodness!
