Peyton-2 weeks old!!

Wow! I can't hardly believe that Peyton is going to be 2 weeks old tomorrow! Time has just flown! We have been busy around here and have been adjusting well! Here is what Peyton has been up to:
 
-She weighs 7lbs 15 oz.(had a weight check on Wednesday)
 
-has been sleeping 8-10 hours at night most nights! We can not complain about that! She does have her fussy moments before bed but we will take those if she sleeps that great already! Makenna was sleeping through the night at 3 weeks I believe!
 
-has 2-3 oz. every 3-4 hours during the day! She makes the same little smacking noise that her big sister did!
 
-has made several trips to the cottage already! She seems to love it and just chills out in the shade!
 
And now for the picture overload....














 

Makenna-18 months

We had both of the girls well child visits last Monday! So I will start with Makenna and what she has been up to the last few months! Her 18 month stats are: 26lbs 4 oz for weight which is the 75th percentile, her height is 32.5 inches which is also 75th!



She wears mainly 12-18 month clothes with some 6-12 month things yet! She wears size 4 diapers.

She says probably 10-15 words, some of our favorites are uh-oh, what's that and she thinks all animals are cows!

She just is getting all 4 molars, so we are up to 10 teeth! But still waiting on 2 more bottom incisors!

She still will take a morning and afternoon nap but usually if her morning nap goes too long her afternoon nap is shot!

She loves to play outside and be at my parents cottage to swim!
 
 


When she turned 17 months we tried the toddler bed since we were expecting another girl about a month later! We were so surprised how well she did and thinks its pretty cool!

Here 1st night she ended up like this...
we did not leave her this way!

Makenna 12-16 months

Makenna turns 16 months old tomorrow! So before I forget all the important details I figured I should write them all down! So don't mind all the randomness!

12 month appt stats- 20 lbs 11 oz. -29 1/2 in. Both were 50% I think!
15 month appt stats- 24 lbs 5 oz. -31 in. Both were a little above 75%

Makenna started walking a few days before she was 14 months old! She just started taking off one day, none of that 2-3 step walking, it was a good 10-15 steps at a time! She just loves walking and thinks she is pretty cool stuff! This was the first day walking, we were a bit excited and so glad we got it on video!

She now has 6 teeth and she is teething right now and always has her hands in her mouth!

She signs "more and please", waves bye-bye and hi, plays patty cake and peek a boo, is starting to point to her nose, belly and mouth!

Words she says: da-da, mom, uh-oh, oh wow, yum and yay!
she jabbers constantly and expects you to understand her!

Loves to look at books, watch Boz the Bear and play outside!

-still sleeps great at night and takes 2 naps most days!
