And in this corner, weighing in at 23 pounds, 10 ounces … and standing at 31.5″ high … the middleweight queen of her world … Flora “The Bonks” Hergert.
Despite a heart-wrenching cry during her shots, Flora fared well at her 15 month checkup with Dr. G. She ranked 79% for height (a .75″ gain from her last visit) and 61% for weight (a 2 pound gain from her last visit), again making her a well-proportioned kiddo. She’s already surpassed the 18-month criteria for talking (20 words), but of course would only say one of her words (Hi) to the doctor. She met all her 15 month milestones (using a utensil, manipulating objects, etc.). And although she’s taking her sweet time with walking, Dr. G could tell that Flora has her very own agenda. It’s truly amazing how much personality is packed into such a small person.
