Girls well baby visits...

Both the girls had their well baby visits yesterday and things look great for both of them.



Kiley is weighing in at 19 lbs 9 oz and 28.5 in long, she is about 50-75 % We didn't really have any questions or concerns for the Dr other then how do we wean from the bottle? Seems like a silly questions for a second child but Hailey took herself off the bottle at 9 months and Kiley seems to still really like her bottle. Just goes to show that no 2 kids are the same. Dr Henderson said not to worry about starting to wean her right now. I wanted Kiley to get her flu shot but the peds office is out of them and she is to young to take the flu mist, I opted to bypass the H1N1 shot this year. Dr Henderson thinks that Ki-Mo will be an early walker, makes me tired just thinking about it. She is so different then Hailey. Kiley is into EVERYTHING the other night Chris and I sat in the living room and watched Kiley crawl all the way into the kitchen, Hailey never would go into a room that we weren't in. We also found her in the bathroom with her hand in, yes you guessed it the TOILET-holy cow where did this girl come from! We joke all the time that if she was our first she would have been our last. Kiley Maureen you truly are our wild child, you have no fear to new things or new surroundings. Everyday is a new adventure with you!!!



Hailey Lauren weighed in at 34 lbs and was 38.25 in, Dr Henderson told Chris that Hailey was tall, which makes me laugh because she seems really little. We had a few concerns with Hailey one was her very dry skin. It seems like no matter how much lotion we put on her she is so dry and she is constantly itching, poor baby. So Dr Henderson said to start using creams on her and that the eczema should get better. We also had a concern with her neck, sometimes when Hailey turns her head towards the right she will stop in her tracks and start screaming that her neck hurts. We rub it and then it seems to get better. Dr Henderson didn't have any real concerns since Hailey had never been in an accident or anything, but she did want to do a x-ray of her cervical spine just to be sure all was ok. They wouldn't let Chris go back in the room with Hailey, so off she went by herself like such a big girl. They told Chris that she was their best patient so far, she never cried or anything and they even took her earrings out and put them back in. Dr Henderson called me a few hours later letting me know that the results came back just fine. We just need to watch as to if it happens more often or if the pain starts to go down her arm or if her arm gets tingly. Hailey couldn't get a flu shot either, one because well they are out of them and she can't have the flu mist because of the seasonal asthma she gets :(



I can't believe how quickly my girls are growing, its so hard to think that this time last year Kiley was in my belly and Hailey still looked like a toddler!
