Melina's 2 year update

I thought I had posted an update after her 2 year appt. but I can't find it. Hmm. Well, I will write it again since some of you have asked how her 2 year check-up went. All went very well. She was 35 inches tall and just over 29lbs. Her doctor gave us percentiles but I already forgot where she fell--I think in the 70% for both or something like that. He said she is a healthy little girl and thriving. Her vocabulary is excellent and she is talking non-stop and in sentences, learning cause and effect, etc, which is where we want her to be. For example, she saw a baby crying (probably got a shot) and said "mommy baby is crying, baby got hurt. baby is sad." It is really amazing how she is learning about emotions and understands when people are happy, sad, upset, etc.

She had to get one shot which we heard about for days "I have a boo-boo. See here on my leg. Band-aid--shot---oww."

Her doctor did say we needed to make sure she was getting enough iron. We don't eat a lot of meat in our house so he wanted to be sure she was getting plenty of iron from other sources. Fortunately she loves spinach and beans.
