Well Checks

On Tuesday both kids had their well baby check-ups. Little Elliot is sure growing like a weed! I can't believe how fast he's grown. He's more than tripled his birth weight. He wasn't even close to being on the charts when he was born. He's pretty solid too, way more than Libby was. I'm pretty sure she's just going to be tall and skinny and petite and beautiful forever.

ELLIOT: 4 months:
12 lbs 4 oz (6%) This is for his actual age, usually they do his adjusted age which would be about 15%
23.5 in (6%)

Milestones, etc:

Coos and smiles a lot
Puts toys into his mouth
Rolls from his back to his side (getting close to rolling all the way)
Very ticklish, a few laughs
Sleeps through the night! 10pm to 7:30am!!! AMAZING!
Loves baths
Loves Libby (and mommy and daddy)
Plays the maracas




LIBERTY: 2 years
22.5 lbs (4%--up from 2% at her last check....still a string bean though)
34 inches (53%)

Milestones, etc:
Can say pretty much anything (the dr asked if she had a 20-50 word vocabulary.....lets try 200 at least)
quotes movies, specifically Despicable Me
LOVES movies (a bit more than I would like her too)
Runs, jumps, goes up and down stairs easily
Sings songs
Loves Elliot
Can name all the ABC's (capital letters only)
Counts to 5
Excellent artist
Almost potty trained--some days are better than others to say the least.
Ridiculously stubborn

  1. They are both super cute :) Libby is very advanced for just being 2, she's a lucky girl to have parents who help her to learn so much!

  3. So cute! But this isn't fair... My 8 month old weighs as much as your 2 year old! Guess David and I really do breed giants. But your kids are beautiful and I am so glad to hear Elliott

  4. Elliot is crazy adorable. We are very lucky to witness the adorableness all the time. Richard and I breed very small kids apparently. Libby's always been a little pipsqueak and even for Elliot's adjusted age he is pretty small.
