2 year (belated) check up.

Mom picked up Nadia at school. She was so happy to see mom but at the same didn't want to leave. She ate all her lunch. So we went to the pediatric office to have Nadia 2 year old check up today. It is 2 months late but apparently her pediatrician, Dr. Sandvig is very popular so she is always so booked up for a longer appointment.
Good thing, she won't need any vaccines or shots today. It was really easy. For some reason, Nadia always cries when she sees the nurse when she is checking on Nadia's height.... it's just so funny.
We had a long talk with Dr. Sandvig. Nadia told stories about her school bus (of course, she lent her school bus for her), she asked the Dr. to read her books. She laughed, and said thank you and also said: "I like Dr. Sandvig".
Conclusion :
Nadia's really healthy. She had never have any antibiotics since she was born, means.. never had any infection. Knock the wood, hope it says that way.
Her language skill is like a 3 year old, everything is pretty good for Nadia's development, including her height (she is very tall, in the 95th percentile), and she is growing in her curve in weight and height, of course, like parents like child, she is a lean girl, so she is in between 25th to 50th percentile in weight, for mom and dad means, whenever we travels, we can carry nadia for a long time... yay!!!!
Nadia can count to 17, knows exactly her alphabets and colors, can play with 5 pieces of puzzles, and now, she has her imaginary friends (she makes her school bus to be her best buddy, she would feed it, talk and read books for it, and sleep with it...)
Dr. Sandvig is very pleased with her development, especially her communicating skill, because Nadia talks very very clearly.
So she said to her : "I will see you next year.." and Nadia replied : "See you next year"

She is a very gentle, easy going girl, very happy and friendly girl.
She waves goodbye and say hi to everyone in the waiting room before she left the office.
She also got to eat a lollipop from Dr. Sandvig, she would crack them and chew it.... so it only took her literally 3 minutes to finish her big lollipop.
