Roxi had her one-year checkup this afternoon. She got another glowing report from Dr. P, with gold stars in the areas of growth, development and cuteness. She's doing magnificently ... even if she won't eat any vegetables. Rob and I knew this already, but it was pretty swell to hear it from the doc himself.

Roxi had a good time - waving and smiling at everyone, playing with the spiffy bead table, discovering the air conditioning vent, untying Dr. P's shoes, exploring every nook and cranny of the examining room - until her 2 shots were administered. Even then she was a trooper; she was grinning at nurse Rhonda mere moments after the second needle left her skin.

So, without further ado, here are Roxi's latest stats:

• 21 pounds, 5 ounces - in the 60th percentile
• 30.75 inches tall - in the 90th percentile
• 18.75 inches head circumference - in the 99th percentile
