12 Month Check-up

The girls had their 12 month check up (and shots) today and everything looks great. They are right on target as far as what they should be doing physically and cognitively. I asked about their wonderful chunkiness and he said he was not worried in the slightest, and they would run it all off soon enough. (So I know I have chubby babies, but its perfectly ok people!) :)

For my records, here are their "stats"

Hannah
Length - 30 1/4 inches (75-90th%)
Weight - 24lbs, 10oz (90-95%)
Head Circumference - 18 1/8inches (75%)

Leah
Length - 29inches (50%)
Weight - 24lbs 7oz (90-95%)
Head Circumference - 17 3/4 inches (50%)

The doctor broke my heart today though. When he came in he said "I just cant believe they are already a year old!! They are no longer infants! They are now children" Yes, I know this is an obvious statement, but they are still my babies!!! I guess I now understand it when my mom always says we are still her babies, no matter how old we get :)

Wow. You survived the first year. Amazing how fast it goes by. We had an AU party for Olivia's first bday so I have had a great time looking at your pics and taking a walk down memory lane. Don't let anyone tell you those girls are too fat. I think they are perfect. Olivia was always in the 90th and Noah is in the 25th. I gotta say I never worried about Olivia and how much she ate, but every meal I am stressed out and worried that Noah is not eating enough to gain weight. You have a beautiful family.
