Madison's 3 year check-up

After I posted about Shaylee's 6 month check-up I realized that I never posted about Madison's 3 year check-up so here we go...

We went to the doctors on May 26th and she weighs 28 lbs which is in the 21 percentile and she is 3 feet tall which is in the 24 percentile. She is growing good but the doctor did say that her tonsils are bigger than usual which happens to a lot of kids and as they grow up their tonsils go back to normal. He asked us if we have noticed her snoring or if she stops breathing, which could be a sign of sleep apnea. We hadn't noticed either one but now have realized that she does snore pretty loudly, so I asked the doctor today about it and he said that we could go to an ear, nose, and throat doctor to see what they say and if they do think it is a problem then we will have to get her tonsils and adnoids out. Hopefully she won't have to have the surgery and they will go back to normal. Other than that and her broken knee she is doing great.

On a side note, I started potty training Madi the last week of April and within a few days she was potty trained. YAY!!!

Shaylee's 6 month check-up

I took Shaylee to her 6 month check-up today. I can't believe how fast she is growing and also that she is 6 months old already. Time has gone by so fast. She weighs 16 lbs which is in the 52 percentile. She is 27 1/2 inches tall which is in the 96 percentile. and her head is 43 cm which is in the 67 percentile. On April 18 she started rolling from her back to her stomach and has now mastered that and stomach to back. She rolls all over the place. I can put her down in one spot and a few minutes later she will be half way across the room. She can also sit on her own for a few seconds. The doctor said she is doing great with hitting her milestones and she is also growing great.

Big Green Bandaid

On June 9th I took Madison to the Doctors for her follow up visit for her leg. When we got there we took off the splint and of course she screamed through that because she didn't want the big bandaid taken off and because her knee hurt. Then the doctor looked at her knee and decided to take some x-rays, or pictures as Madi calls them, to see how bad the break was. They took two x-rays and the doctor said it was definitely broken so they needed to put a cast on it. He said it was a buckle fracture. She has to have the cast on for five weeks so she will get it off on July 14. It took a long time for Madi to decide what color she wanted but then finally decided on a green one. She calls it the "big green bandaid." She has learned how to walk on it and can even go up and down the stairs which makes things a little easier. Here are a couple of pictures:
