2 Year Check Up

Madeline had her 2 year check up with the pediatrician today. Maddy is growing and thriving exactly as she should and she is doing great. Her motor skills are still advanced for her age and Madeline impresses everyone with her ability to count to 10 and recognize about 9 colors.

Madeline weighs 28 pounds which is in the 78th percentile and she is 34 inches tall which is 51st percentile. The pediatrician said Madeline is on pace to be about 5'8" as an adult which is great considering I am only 5'2'

Madeline also had to go to the lab where they drew her blood for a routine blood count. She did OK but cried and yelled "Amy" over and over. She has started calling me by my first name recently as she hears our friends saying it. Hearing such a tiny voice say my name is actually quite cute and I don't mind it.

Madeline has starting to put puzzles together on her own. She can put all 9 pieces of her "Wonder Pets" puzzle together without any help. The box says it is for ages 3 and up so this is a great achievement. She can also say the names over 30 animals and make the noise of each one. Madeline can tell you exactly what she wants to eat or drink and she can put together full sentences now. We are so proud of our little girl!
