Cora likes her new slide, she was testing how fast she can go down! She continued to go down the slide about 200 times after this!!

Cora's 3 year appointment:
She started to get nervous when I told her about the appointment but I was very firm and told her not to cry and that she was going to be brave. Both the nurse and two doctors (one was an intern) said she is in great health, size and weight. They all also commented on her "advanced verbal skills." (I secretly wondered if they were saying that she NEVER stops talking?!) We will make a dentist appointment soon and probably start fluoride pills or treatments since we are on well water.
Weight: 34 pounds(75 percentile)
Height: 42 inches (off charts - about 115 percentile)
Currently wearing 4T dresses, 3T/4T shirts & shorts

Another vaccine was given but we declined the flu vaccine. Dave and I discussed it and we are watchful of the flu but not worried. . . we are comfortable with the major vaccines but don't necessarily want to add two more (regular flu and H1N1) to the shots schedule.
November 2, 2009
Luke (15 months) got new shoes - size 8!!
He wears 18-24 month clothing.
Cora (2.5 years) didn't need a new size yet - size 9!!
Cora is in 3t pants and 3t or 4t shirts.
August 27, 2009:
Luke (almost 13 months) had his one year check up.
Height: 33.25 inches
Weight: 26 pounds
He received his shots/vaccines and handled them like a big boy. . . but his lead test was torture!! He screamed and had a tough time with it.
August 15, 2009:
Luke (12.5 months) got new shoes - size 7!!!! (The lady at the Stride Rite who has owned the store for 30 years said, "I have not sold many shoes this size for a kid this young.")
August 10, 2009:
Cora (age 26.5 months) got new shoes - size 9.
July 24, 2009:
Luke was grabbing his hears a lot so we decided to take him to the doctor to double check to see if he had an ear infection. Also, Cora has a mysterious rash that needed a doctor's quick glance. Turns out Luke has a small ear infection and Cora has just a basic children's rash - allergic to something she touched and it will eventually go away.
Luke: 25 pounds 3 ounces
Cora: 29 pounds
June 1, 2009:
Luke's "9 month" appointment (he is 10 months old but we wanted to schedule Cora and Luke for the same day):
He did great!! No tears - No problem!!
Weight: 21 pounds 6 ounces
Height: 32.75 inches
Currently wearing size 18-24 month summer clothes, sometimes fitting into 12-18 month.
Cora's "2 year" appointment:
She cried as soon as she got into the parking lot and didn't stop until about 30 minutes later - crying isn't a good description for the screaming and yelling that came from her little body! Cora finally calmed down to be examined by the doctor - all is looking great! She did get one shot . . .and she cried again. . . but when the nurse took the needle out she said, "No more hurt!" So she did get a few points for bravery at the end!!
weight: 26 pounds
height: 37 inches
Currently wearing 3T dresses, shorts (for length) and 2T shirts.
