March Stats

The girls had their check-ups on Tuesday. Ava's 5 year and Quinn's 9 month. They both did great and are still growing like weeds. Ava had to get her finger pricked, pee in a cup, and get two shots so it was a little bit of a rough afternoon for her.

Ava's Stats:

Weight - 51.2 pounds 90% tile

Height 47 1/4 in 97% tile

Things Ava can Do:

Write her name

Can distinguish all colors

Can copy shapes and draw shapes independently

Can hop on one foot, skip, ride a bike without training wheels

Knows all her letters and how to write most of them

Can draw a person with a head, arms, legs, nose, eyes, mouth,etc.

Can create a pattern

Our doctor said that Ava seems more like a 7 year old than a girl that just turned 5. She said her overall demeanor, the way she talks, acts, etc. is alot more mature and advanced than most 5 year olds she sees. I hope that can explain why she gets in trouble sometimes at school and daycare. I think some of it is that she's bored! I think she acts more like she's 16!

Quinn's Stats:

Weight - 21 pounds 3 ounces - 90% tile

Height - 29 3/8 inches - 97% tile

Head Circ. - 46.5 cm - 97% tile

Things Quinn Can Do:

Army crawl

Say "mama" & "dada

Clap

Feed herself finger foods, a bottle and a sippy cup

Wave Bye Bye

Give Hugs & Kisses

It's funny how different things change from one baby to another. With Ava I was a total freak about everything she ate. Now with Quinn I pretty much let her have whatever, and this girl loves herself some ice cream! I think she is about to go in a food coma here from the delicious ice cream sandwitch she mutilated.
