I'm POTTY TRAINED!!!! I am in big girl panties today. I sleep in a Pull-Up at nights and haven't had an accident yet. My mommy calls me her "Big Girl" now. I am just like sissy. Mommy bought me some Franklin, Pooh, and Barney panties.
September 19, 2000
Went to the doctor today for my 2 year checkup. I got to stand on the "big girl" scale and have my temperature taken like the "big girls". The doctor said I am growing right on schedule and I am so smart. She doesn't have a clue of how much trouble I can get in.
March 16, 2000
I have learned how to sing Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star and I can say my alphabet. Mommy, Daddy, and Sissy know what I am saying but I don't think anyone else does. It sounds like the tune to Twinkle, Twinkle but I can't quite get the words right.
December 14, 1999
Daddy had doctor duty today. I went for my 15 month checkup. I weighed 23 pounds 11 1/2 ounces and measured 31 1/2 inches. I passed all my milestones and Dr. Cathy gave me flouride tablets to take after brushing my teeth. I had to get my last shots until school starts today. OUCH!!!
August 10, 1999
Mommy took me to the doctor's today to make sure I didn't have and ear infection. I weighed 21.4 pounds and everything was fine except for two new teeth popping through and a mild cold. I can pull up and stand by myself, crawl on my hands and knees, and even cruise the furniture. I still follow my big sister around everywhere and she doesn't even mind. Boy am I growing.
June 2, 1999
Boy, I am really cruising now. Mommy says that I look like a soldier in the Army crawling under wire. I use my arms and legs, not hands and knees. I can now say "Dada" and "Maaamaaamaaaa". I can clap my hands and sit by myself.
May 15, 1999
I sat up by myself for the first time today. Mommy is so proud of me. I can't hold myself up very long without tipping over. Last night, Mommy caught me rocking back and forth on my knees in my crib. I bet it won't be long before I crawl.
April 26, 1999
Had to go to the doctor today. I weighed 18 pounds 14 ounces.
April 25, 1999
I got my first tooth today. It is on the bottom and I don't like the way it feels a all. It hurts. The one beside it is starting to come in beside it. Mommy thinks that my top teeth will be coming in any time too. I don't think I am going to like this much.
March 23, 1999
I had my 6 month checkup today. Passed with flying colors. I weighed 18 lbs 4.4 oz and measured 26 1/2 inches. Ears and lungs were clear. Dr. Cathy said that I should be sitting by myself any time now. She checked my legs for strength and said that standing and pulling up shouldn't be too far off either.
March 10, 1999
Look out, I can roll now. I have mastered the complete roll today. I rolled from the living room to toy room today before anyone could stop me. Nothing is safe anymore.
March 1, 1999
Man, do I ever have this rolling from my back to my belly down pat. I even do it in my sleep now. The only problem I have is that I need to cry to get turned back over. Haven't mastered the "belly to back" part yet. Well, at least Mommy, Daddy, and Kaylin can help me.
February 14, 1999
I surprised mommy and Mom Mom Justis by rolling over by myself today. I can roll from my back to my tummy if I get a rolling start. It takes me about 5 starts and then over I go.
January 23, 1999
I am now 4 months old and weigh 16 lbs. 12 oz. I am 25 1/4" tall. My mommy says that I am growing like a weed and eating her out of house and home. Peas and Applesauce is my favorite meal, and of course we can forget dessert - "FINGERS!!!". I got 3 shots at the doctor's today. Talk about hurting. I was so mad that I slept all the way home.
November 1998
