Daycare orientation and 12-month checkup

Big Day! Steve & I went to Livie's daycare today for orientation...she starts on Monday. We went through an orientation last summer wehn we first reserved a spot for her but needed a fresher not that she's ready to start. We're excited for her to start...it'll definitely be tough but I really think it will be so great for her. Olivia also had her 12-month check up today (yes, she's actually 13 months old now). Everything went well and she did great. Dr. Kim seemed to be impressed with Livie's progress and how quickly she's adjusted & bonded with us. She's totally off formula/bottle....she eats some babyfood but mostly table food and she drinks from a sippy cup. This baby LOVES TO EAT! We've found nothing she doesn't like...and she never says she's had enough. We just have to stop her from eating when we know she's had enough. Since her first appt on 11/28, she's gained 6 oz and grown 1 inch. We really thought she'd gained a bit more than that since she eats so well...but she's obviously burning it off. She's a healthy baby...but she's tiny! She's in the 5th percentile for weight and the 50th percentile for length. The doctor has no concerns about her weight...she's just little. The worst part of the day...Olivia got 4 shots today. Yes, she screamed...but she was over it almost as soon as the nurse left the room. She had a Bugs Bunny bandaid on each arm and each leg...attached are a couple of pics...
