Maddie at two:
Height: 35.5 in (90%)
Weight: 28.2 lbs (50%)
Head: 48 cm (50%)
Maddie is a beautiful, intelligent, curious, friendly and funny little girl. She's learning new things daily and adding words to her vocabulary all the time. She's still selective about taking but understands almost everything we say to her or ask her. Our pediatrician thinks Maddie is still currently on track with her talking and suggested we wait another 3-4 months and then visit a speech therapist just to get another point of view. We'll see where Maddie is with talking at that time.
Details we want to Remember about Maddie:
- Loves to play with balls
- Has a wonderful imagination and plays pretend everyday
- Is empathetic. If someone gets hurt, she worries.
- Sings parts of Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, Itsy, Bitsy Spider, her ABCs and Wheels on the Bus
- Can recognize and say most letters of the alphabet
- Knows several colors
- Knows the difference between up and down, on and off, open and closed
- LOVES Dora
- Loves playing with legos and blocks

- Turns on and off light switches throughout the house
- Loves being outside
Carly at two months:
Height: 23 in (50%)
Weight: 12.7 lbs (75%)
Head: 38 cm (25%)
Although Carly is so young, she seems to be a happy and people-loving baby just like Maddie. Unfortunately, we've already battled a cold and ear infections since Carly probably picks up germs from Maddie (who is exposed to stuff at preschool) and this time of year is tough on any age. As warmer weather approaches, I hope that Carly gets a break from yucky germs.
Things to Remember about Carly:
- Smiles at me or Eric when we talk to her
- Likes to be held
- Can already hold her head up like a champ
- Wiggles and coos emphatically when she's excited and happy
