Well-Child Checks

Yesterday, both boys had their regular checkups - Russell for 3 months and Travis for 2 years.

Russell is 11+ pounds! He is also 24 inches long.

Travis is 31+ pounds and 37.5 inches tall!

The doc is very happy with both of them.

The occupational therapist has been coming the last couple of weeks to evaluate and work with Russell.  She is also very happy with his progress. He is eating a lot more and very active.

Travis Counts to 4 and Other Happenings

Today, Travis asked for some of Matt's chex cereal. He loves chex. Matt said "1,' then Travis tried to bargain with him and said "2" then "3" then "4" and took 4 pieces of chex out of Matt's bowl! Travis has said 1, 2, and 3 before but never together. Apparently, if it means him getting more food, he can count.  

This past Tuesday was Travis' birthday and since Matt's is so close (today), we did a joint party. We had friends and family come over for a great dinner, presents and cake. Mom made some cakes in the shape of Legos. They were really cute.

Last Sunday, my cousins Kim and Liz and Aunt Judi held a meet-and-greet so some of my Portland family could meet Russell. They did a beautiful job and it was a lot of fun. THANK YOU!

Monday, we go to the pediatrician for both boys.
