9/22/09 18 month check up

Haidyn is sort of doing well. She speaks a ton and the dr is very happy with that. She thinks she may even potty train early because she's so verbal. Although we're nowhere with that at this point, so we'll see. She's 34.5" tall and 26lbs 2oz. That's 97% for height and 48% for weight. Doctor says thats perfect!

Now for the bad part. She had developed some small red dots in her diaper area that multiplied throughout the day. I asked the doctor about them and it turns out she has hand, foot, mouth disease. She has a couple of dots on her hands, but the inside of her mouth is covered in ulcers. Wonderful. She doesn't have a fever though, so that's good. Hopefully she'll run through this quickly. Theres nothing you can take for it, it just needs to run it's course. She wasn't able to get her shots today, so we have to go back next week.

I got a slide!

Thank you Grandpa W! Haidyn loves her new slide. Not only is it a slide, but a place to sit and watch Little Einstein. She also found out that there's a hiding spot underneath the slide. She's going to get a lot of use out of her toy!

18 months old!

I can't believe she's a year and a half already. Other than catching a cold on her birthday, she's doing well. She seems so advanced for her age. Maybe we're just typical parents and think their child is the smartest kid ever... or maybe she just really is. :) She learns things so quickly. Every day she has another word or two or three. We've lost count now. It's somewhere over 70. She even looks like a little girl now rather than a baby. Her 18 month get well appt is on the 22nd, I'll update her stats then.

New sandbox

Haidyn has a new sandbox. Mommy and Daddy worked very hard (well, Daddy worked hard, Mommy just painted) to make it for her. She seems to really enjoy it. So does Paisley. haha.

we moved!

I got maxed out on the number of pictures I could post on the old site, so we moved here. I copied and pasted all the previous posts so everything is in one spot.

Enjoy watching Haidyn grow up!
