1 Year Well Visit

Ryleigh and Reagan went in for their 1 year well visit today. Everything is going great! Ryleigh weighs 19 lbs 3 oz (20%) and is 30 inches long (75%). Reagan is 24 lbs 1 oz (90%) and 29 ½ inches long (50-75%). They are growing like crazy! :)

I talked to her about the fact that I’m concerned that neither of them are walking yet (Reagan is not even close!!!), and she told me I shouldn’t worry, so that eased my mind about that a little. It’s just so impossible not to compare them to other babies…and each other.  Ugh! They were born a month early for one thing, but Reagan, especially, doesn’t seem very motivated at this point. She’s fine with crawling…and she doesn’t have to go far to play with her sister. I dunno. 

So, during the appointment, the doctor asked if I had them completely off of baby food yet. Ummm, I didn’t know I was supposed to have them off of baby food! We have introduced a lot of solid foods, but I was still feeding them a lot of baby food. She said stop, so we did. It was a lot of change all at once, but Ryleigh and Reagan were awesome and transitioned pretty seamlessly! We switched from formula to milk, bottles to sippy cups, and baby food and solids to completely solids. And? We did this all while we were on vacation. We decided to try it…but if they were showing hesitation, not to push it…but they really showed no hesitation to any of the changes. I guess they were ready. They are such big girls!!!!! 

No more bottles, formula or baby food! Yippeeeee!
