Bethanie 3 years

Bethanie had her 3 year appointment today and is doing great.  She is 31 lbs  which is 50% , she is 37 7/8 inches tall which is also 50%.  The doctor said that she had a great year for growth and grew a lot last year.

She is having some troubles with her ears and has another ear infection in the 1 year that doesn't have the tube anymore.  The doctor said we should wait until after winter to take the other tube out and that we may possibly be heading down the path of another set of tubes bc she has had two ear infections in the ear that lost its tube. 

Anyway Bethanie is currently wearing size 3T clothes and size 8 shoes :). 


Caroline 9 Months

Caroline had her 9 month azppointment a couple of weeks ago and is doing great.  She is 15 lbs 8 oz which is 5% and her height and head are also 5%.  She is tiny but boy can she pack away the food.

She is eating 4 - 6 oz bottles a day and eating 3 solid meals a day also.  She eats everything that we are eating for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
