The girls will be 18 months old on November 4th, and they had their 18 month check-up on Thursday with Dr. Knott. He said they are doing great! Sophia is still in the 25% for weight (22.9lbs) and height (30.75 inches). Isabella is 5% for weight (20.4lbs) and 10% for height (30 inches. They both still have big heads 90 and 85%!
They are right where they should be with motor skills and language. Such big girls lately, they mimic us constantly and have lots of new words. Sophia says mama, dada, dog, whats that, uh-oh, hi , sock and there (when she's handing us something). Isabella says mama, dada, dog, uh-oh, hi, whats that, car, and sock. They babble all the time and do some games like pretend to sleep and high five. Isabella likes to hide behind things when it's time for nap :) and she can give kisses. Sophia is so close to giving kisses but she makes a funny fish face instead, very cute. They both have 16 teeth already so we are done with teething until the 2-year molars - whew!
They are getting pretty good at eating with forks and spoons and lately we give them a plate at the table instead of using the high-chair tray. So far they love it! They can even feed themselves yogurt or cottage cheese using spoons and a little bowl. It's fun having all four of us around the table, our little family :)
