Molly 18 month check up

Stats: 32 inches 60th percentile
(this means that she didn't grow between 15months and 18months, I think their measuring might be a little off. Whatever.)
22lbs 3 oz 20th percentile (she gained about a pound and a half)
head 47.5cm 80th percentile

Dr Sara was impressed with Molly as usual. She expected only about 15 words (Molly must have 50) and for her to string only a word or 2 together at a time. Molly speaks sentences as far as we're concerned. "Daddy all gone. Daddy bye bye. Daddy work." etc. Dr Sara didn't expect Molly to have any interest in the potty, but she's gone a half dozen times or so in the last month and a half.

Molly is done with shots expect for flu shots each year and chicken pox which she will need (or a case of them) before going to school.

We need to get rid of the pacifier, but she's only had it at night and nap lately. And we need to brush her teeth twice daily. She's more interested in sucking water off the brush.

Her next appt is for her 2 year appt and will be at the beginning of December. End of 2009 already! And I'll be taking baby #2 with and will probably be doing a 4 month appt at that time!!! Crazy!

Molly & Jasmine

Here's Molly and her buddy Jasmine (Steve & Hollie's DD who is 11 months old). I don't have pics of it, but while they were playing, Molly would go behind Jasmine and hug her. She'd hug to the point where she was holding Jasmine up! She's never done this with any of her other little friends. It was cute. I'll try to post pics if Hollie shares them with me.

Playing around...

Molly narrates her own life. Here she tells herself to "sit down" at the table.

"camera" that is what she says at the beginning and end of this vid.

what an outfit?!

This is what happens when Molly finds her visor, Dad's earmuffs, a wrist band, and her piggy book. LOL

at the Jack's

Grandma & Grandpa Jack have all these little (antique) chairs that Molly just loves to sit in. They are her size!

Mother's Day Sit Ups!

My inlaws have this thing called a "Sit Up Sally". Molly loves this "toy".
For at least a month or more Molly will lay on the floor at home and practice her Sally moves.

Molly will even say "up n down. mmmm more.... nnnn more... Up down" and raise and lower her legs. It is too cute. Check it out for yourself.


I've even caught Molly sitting on other dolls chests and raising and lowering their legs!


Oh and the best part is, she loves watching videos of babies, but will watch this one over and over and over again. "again. up down Molly again"
