18 Month Stats

Madison had her 18-month Dr. appointment yesterday. 23 lbs .05 oz and 32 inches long. (She has gained 3 lbs & grown 3 1/2 inches since her 1 year appointment!) She is right on the 50% line for both height & weight - which the Dr was impressed with since she has been sick so much. Madison doesn't miss a meal though & usually has plenty of snacks in between. This week at daycare a little boy brought in a granola bar for breakfast. When he took his coat off he must have left a few crumbs behind. Daycare found Madison digging around in his coat on the coat rack - looking for some left over granola crumbs!

We are so amazed & proud of all the new things Madison is learning these days! I bought her a potty last week and she has used it several times. Even without being prompted, she'll tell us that she needs to go potty & will go in & use it. Such a big girl! She is picking up on more words everyday. Yesterday she said ketchup and remote. (If she doesn't like what we're watching on TV, she will either turn if off or pick up the remote & point it at the TV.)

We're headed up north this evening & looking forward to spending the weekend with friends & family. We'll stop at my Dad's tonight then spend Thursday night with my Mom. Then leave early Friday morning for Moline to see my Colorado friend Kelly & her family who are in Moline for Thanksgiving. We've got the car packed & a Backyardigans DVD ready for Madison in the back seat!
