18 Month Wellness Visit

Today was the girls' 18 month wellness visit (even though they are 19 months now....yep a little late for their check-up).  Ava is 32 1/4" tall (50th percentile) and weighs 22lbs 8 oz (20th percentile).  Ella is 32 3/4" tall (65th percentile) and weighs 22 lbs 14oz (30th percentile).  They are growing taller and taller by the day it seems but are still skinny little things.  The Doctor didn't seem concerned and said it is probably because they are so active.  I think it's a combo of that and how picky of eaters they are becoming.  Ava says 'NO' to anything you put on her plate that looks or feels different.  The only things she will eat are fruit, mac-n-cheese, breaded chicken fingers and beans & rice. Ella will eat most things most of the time but still has her days where food is just not appealing.  As for their visit, they did get 3 vaccines each....OUCH!!!  Both cried but I had a lolly-pop ready to go as a distraction which worked wonderfully!!!
