Reagan and Avery both had their check ups last week. Reagan's two year and Avery's six month (almost 7).
Reagan got a doctor kit for Christmas and I really think that helped with her fear of the doctor's office. She knew what the nurse and doctor was doing with each of their instruments because of the play we have done here at home. She did a great job! After the doctor looked in her ears and throat and listened to her heart she looked at Adam and I with this big smile that showed she was so proud of herself!
She has become this little girl right before our eyes. She is talking all the time and seems to say a new word everyday. She is talking in sentences and understands so much. Some of the new things she is saying is "yanks" for thanks. The first time she told me this was at the dinner table. I gave her a slice of orange and she said "yanks" mom. She will say "you too mommy" for love you too mommy. This first came out at the lunch table with daddy a couple weeks ago. When going to bed at night she likes to say all our names and that we all are going "ni knee" night night. She hasn't said Avery yet, but will call her baby or say baby siser.
She continues to still really love reading books. She is starting to read to herself or to her teddy bear "teddy". She is also getting into puzzles and loves playing with her Little People and kitchen. Just recently she learned about "George Monkey" Curious George and thinks he is so funny.
Getting Reagan to eat is still a task but she still likes her fruits and veggies. She will eat hot dogs, chicken nuggets, cold meat, pizza and mac and cheese. The doctor told us that we should start to see this change a little...I sure hope so! I would also love to switch her over to regular milk instead of Soy but I think this is going to be a hard one to break!
She keeps us busy but we couldn't be any more blessed! She is a special little girl and only brings a smile to our faces and more love to our hearts each and every day!!
Here are here 2 year stats:
Weight 26.5 lbs...50%
Height 35 inches...75%
Head 18 1/2 inches...50% and below
Avery also had a check up, it ended up being closer to 7 months by the time we were able to get both girls in.
Unlike Reagan, Avery wasn't as lucky and had several shots. She does pretty well and only lets out a few squeals before calming down. I hate having to hear her cry like that because she has no idea it is coming:(
As I wrote in a post below, January was a big month for Avery. She really started to interact more with us. She is blowing raspberries, grabbing at her feet, rolling over from back to tummy, tummy to back and talking a lot more these days. She has the biggest smile and sparkle in her eyes. We just started with solid foods, she is still getting use to this foreign food in her mouth. She really likes "Sophie" her giraffe and paci. She isn't sitting up on her own yet but is close.
Avery continues to be a good sleeper. She goes to bed between 8:30 and 9 most nights and will sleep through the night waking up around 7:30 or 8. I have two real good sleepers!
We are also very blessed to have a happy healthy baby girl. For the most part she has stayed healthy this winter only having one small cold. She has the biggest and brightest eyes and cutest smile.
Here are Avery's stats:
Weight 18.1 lbs...75%
Height 27 1/2 inches...90%
Head 17 1/2 inches...90%
