Today was Alexander's check up. I was surprised to find out that he is in the 95th percentile in both height and weight! He weighs 14lbs and he is 24 inches tall. If he continues on this route, he will hopefully be a good height when he is older. I am hoping. He got 4 shots today, and he didn't even cry! I was so proud of him. I half expected him to since he can be difficult at times and hard to calm down. I spoke to the doctor about that and about his evening fussy time. She said that some babies just do that, and hopefully things will get better when he is 3 months. I am looking forward to that. I don't like feeling that we can't bring him somewhere because we are afraid he might cry or act up. Even though Alex can be difficult in the evening, after 1AM he is usually asleep for the rest of the night - so I get to sleep!
Alana has been doing really well. Her last 4 teeth are coming in now. Alana has a great sense of humor
and she loves to laugh. Sometimes when we laugh at something, she
starts laughing too.. even if she doesn't know what we are laughing
about. She is learning so many new words and I am just waiting for the day that she starts putting 2 words together. She communicates very well with us and can usually tell us what she needs or wants. She has given Alex a new nickname. First, she couldn't pronounce his name, so she was calling him "Adex" instead of Alex. From Adex, she started to call him "Addie". So, we have started to call him that sometimes too now.
