Two Year Wellness Checkup.

I left work early on Friday to help Fiona out taking the kiddies to their Doctor's appointment. It's been a while since I have gone to one of the girls' appointments. The girls' immediately cried when the nurse called us back into one of their rooms. Here's the specs:

NATALIE:
weight- 20lbs (with clothes on)
height- 31.5 inches


VANESSA:
weight- 20lbs (with clothes on)
height- 32 inches

For those who are not aware, those numbers are still pretty low. They are in the 5th percentile (or less). Fiona was a lot more excited about them reaching 20lbs but that is still small by all accounts. They should be about 5-6 pounds heavier to be average.

After their measurements, we had some time to ask the doctor some misc. questions and then it was time for a couple of shots. They cried of course (with Vanessa being the worse), but it wasn't too bad. They both waived a relief-goodbye to the doctor and nurse when it was time to leave.

Normally their next check up would be when they turn 3 years old but the doctor wanted them back in six months to monitor their weight.
