2 years and 2 months

We all took a trip to the pediatrician today for Natalie's 2 month check-up and Joanna's 2 year check-up.

2 cute naked girls!

Okay... the stats:

Joanna is 25lbs 8oz and 32 1/4 in long. She's still in the lower percentiles, but growing nicely. She's in a higher percentile for her height than her weight. And it's most likely that she'll get taller faster than she'll get heavier.

She got a clean bill of heath -- she's perfect!

Natalie is 10lbs 2 1/2 oz, 21 1/2 in tall, and her head is 15 1/8 in. She's headed right up the growth chart, pretty much in the middle. To give you a little comparison, Joanna was 8lbs 8oz and 20 in tall at her 2 month check-up. It's likely Joanna was almost exactly 2 months at her doctor's visit; Natalie actually won't be 2 months till next Wednesday. (Dr. Harper is leaving for Africa for 3 weeks on Friday which is why we went today.) So Natalie is bigger than Joanna was, for sure!

She is also practically perfect. She's got a little cradle cap, which we got instructions on how to care for. Hopefully it will clear up soon!

Both girls got shots. Joanna had only 1, and she didn't even flinch! Natalie had 3, and she cried pretty hard for the 2nd and 3rd one. She settled down really fast afterward, though.

My wonderful husband took today off to go with us, and we've been able to have a relaxing afternoon together!
