Doctor Trip.

Last month i took both the girls in for their check-ups. Kate's 2 year well check [although she is 2 1/2] and Lucy's 4 month well check [today she is 5 months old!] The girls proved to be on the same growth path and the doctor informed me that i make cream as milk and that the girls are doing great! He was super impressed by Kate, her vocabulary and how she already talks in clear full sentences. Lucy didn't disappoint either, she was also advanced since she is babbling already. I am so lucky to be the mama to these two amazing little girlies. While at the doc, the girls got their shots, Kate was not a happy camper, she yelled and screamed and cried, we had to hold her down... then immediately after her shot, she said while still whimpering, "oh, that wasn't that bad." Sometimes she makes things so complicated! Lucy did got 4 shots and did great on the first two, the girl didn't even flinch, the 3rd and 4th weren't as pleasant, but she got over it within about 10 seconds. Here are their stats:
