15 month checkup

April 29, 2016

Samantha went in for her 15 month checkup yesterday and she looks great! Fun in the waiting room…

and then not as much fun after having to get weighed and measured. She didn’t like being handed over to Nurse Shelly!

15 month checkup

She looks fantastic overall. She’s a big girl – 26 lbs, 5 oz and 31 1/4 inches tall! That’s 75th-95th% on both and Dr. Walley said she’s really at about 90th% on weight! wow! She’s a strong, healthy baby girl!! She’s grown 2 inches and 4 lbs since her 12 month appointment. I think that’s because she’s such a good eater!  🙂

For comparison, at 15 months, Spencer was 25 lbs, 11 oz (90th %) and 32 inches tall (95th-98th %).

Maxwell was 23 lbs, 31 inches tall at 15 months.

A few pounds difference between them all but very close and all within an inch of each other. We’ll see where they all end up as they grow.

Samantha is meeting all her milestones in terms of talking, walking and other motor skills. Phew! She was nice to Dr. Walley and let him check her out. She did have to get 2 shots though which she felt like this about it…death stare.

Poor baby. All the fun wore her out and she fell asleep on the ride home…

Would love to hear from you! 3 Comments

Spring in bloom

April 27, 2016

They azaleas are bursting in the backyard so I took the kids out to snap some springtime shots. Got a few good ones and plenty of funny ones! Starting with some of the better ones today…

Yep, that was the best of the group ones! ha! Baby was dancing, Spencer was spinning, and Maxwell was doing his best to stand still and smile! ha! I had a little better luck with some individual ones.

Maxwell aiming to please….

Soccer soccer soccer

April 26, 2016

Another Sunday, another soccer game – but this one was SO MUCH BETTER! As we’ve discussed, Spencer hasn’t exactly taken to Sunday Soccer. He’s loved the warm-up/practice part of it, but hasn’t been very interested in playing the actual game part. There have been plenty of tears and lots of sitting out. However, something changed this week and Spencer was a soccer machine! Now, he still barely actually touched the ball and didn’t come close to scoring a goal BUT he played almost the entire game, hustled his little heart out, and had FUN! Woohoo!!

Before we left the house he said, “Momma I’m gonna play so hard!” and, my goodness, he did! Go Spencey Go!

I loved watching him play….and so did Samantha!

Maxwell proved to be the best ball – and baby! – retriever around!

I think one of the main reasons Spencer did so good this week was because he had the best cheerleader on the sidelines! There’s nothing like having Mrs. Susan cheer you on!!!

Goooo Lightning Bolts!

Weekend highlights

April 25, 2016

Weekend highlights…

On Friday Maxwell got to go to Glenn and Cate’s birthday party. It was a Star Wars party but, since we don’t have any Star Wars costumes, he went as Batman. Makes sense.

That obviously meant Spencer dressed up as Spiderman…just because. Since Maxwell got to go to a party, Spencer and Samantha got to go get a treat too!

Saturday was t-ball! Maxwell got to play pitcher and had some great stops and throws to first!

That afternoon we took advantage of the BEAUTIFUL weather and hit up the park…

Sunday was soccer! Oh boy! No, it really was great actually! In fact, it was so great I think it deserves it’s own post! See you tomorrow!  🙂
