Ellie & Marcus are 18-months old!

18-month check-ups were on Friday, Oct 15th.  They both did well at their check-up even though Ellie gave the Doctor a bit of a hard time.  They also got their flu shots and thankfully have had no ill effects from that.

Having some well-deserved chocolate milk after their flu shots!

15-months!


Babies are officially 1 year, 3 months and 16 days old!  They went for their 15-month chek-up today and passed with flying colors!  I think Ellie remembered her 1 year visit and the 5 shots because she was none to happy when the doctor wanted to look at her.  They both got only 2 shots today thankfully.  They were both within the normal ranges for other kids their age.

Twin – Stats Weight Length Head Circumference
Ellie 26 lbs 11 oz 32.5 in 18.70 in
Marcus 22.5 lbs 31 in 18.11 in

Since Marcus didn’t weigh over 25 pounds we will not be turning the car seats around.  Maybe at their 18-month checkup. 

The kids both got vitamin drops with flouride because we have well water, we’ll be starting that tomorrow. 

TODAY we started using cups instead of bottles and it’s actually going better than I’d expected.  I’d been giving them cups randomly over the last few months but today I got rid of the bottles and decided it was time to switch over.  (Next summer is potty training – woohoo!)

   

They would not cooperate for a picture today while we were in the waiting room…

In other news, Progressive is coming to pickup the van on the 6th so I may be without a car for a while until I find something else.
