Caroline did better this year at the doctor for her well visit. She had practice though with being sick a couple times last year - the extra love shared in Children's Ministry. She wasn't sure about putting on the gown again but having Emily as our PA instead this year made it easier. (I don't blame her.) She weights 48.8 lbs, 42" and BP and HR are right on target. No issues and go back at 5 (unless she gets sick - fingers crossed) and get boosters for Kindergarten. I can't believe it! :(
Gabriele - did not do so well. She was fine if I was holding her. However, she is cutting TWO teeth at the same time, plus growing pains, and naptime (hard to schedule appts when you don't even have a schedule at home). She screamed as soon as I laid her down to undress her to weigh and measure. She calmed down as soon as I picked her up...until I laid her on the table again. She has done well though with growing, teething, and 3 shots plus a drink. She is 16lbs 1 oz, 27 1/2" long and 42.5cm head circumference. Gabriele is growing, growing, growing! She's had cereal and some other baby foods and has liked everything so far - made faces with applesauce and carrots the first time but doing well! She's rolling over back to belly but hates her belly so cries until mommy comes to save her from laying on her belly.
Gabriele ADORES her big sister and Caroline LOVES her little sister - sometimes TOO much. :)
We are very blessed with both our girls. Even with some short nights and long days, the days go by fast!
I'm working on preschool as much as I can with Caroline and she's learning so much, so fast, and so well!
We're all ready to get outside though to plant the garden and enjoy some warm, sunny weather!
