4 year and 18 month checkups

A week ago, I took Jordyn and Aiden for their 4 year and 18 month check ups. Jordyn was a little nervous but she was a good girl.....except for the fact that she didn't even want to step on the scale:) Jordyn is 3 feet 5 inches tall and weighs 36 pounds 6 ounces! She is in the 40th percentile for height and if she stays at this pace will be about 5'3 or 5'4 and is in the 60th percentile for weight. She ended up getting her Kindergarten shots since she is going to start school before she actually turns five. That way I wouldn't have to take her in for an extra appointment to get those taken care of. She is all set. She fussed a little but was a brave girl.

My 4 year old Jordyn is such a sweet thing. She is super shy except around her family and close friends. She loves playing with her figurines (especially her strawberry shortcakes) and plays very well by herself. She loves to play with her sister and sometimes with her little brother. He tends to ruin her little play time than plays with her:) She hates wearing shoes and would much rather go barefoot. She gets her shoes on and then kicks them off as soon as she gets in the van. I've learned to just bring whatever shoes she is going to wear and put them on her when we get there. Jordyn always says "uh huh" when you ask her to do something. It's hard to translate into words but the way she says it is adorable!! She is such a precious little girl and so loving!!

Aiden was such a good boy and so brave. He was having a great time just running around the room and screaming at the top of his lungs (his favorite pasttime:) Aiden is 33.5 inches and 24 pounds. He is in the 26% for his weight and 84% for his height and 70% for his hat. Doc said he was as tall as a 2 year old. Aiden also got two shots He usually just cries for a second and then he's done. I didn't watch the nurse do it. I just looked at his face and he was all happy go lucky one second and then big lips come out the next. He is so cute.

Aiden is definitely through and through a boy!!! He runs circles around me and exhausts me. He climbs and climbs and climbs. He climbs on the chairs, table, couches, patio furniture, beds, my tub so he can stand on it to watch me get ready and the slide!! That one is the scariest because he can get to the top now and there is a big opening with a drop on one side. I'm going to have to put up a board or something so he can play on the slide without me worrying. He loves to be outside and loves playing with his sisters. He's got this cute little smirk he always does and I love to watch him run because it looks like he twists his hips back and forth to do so. It's adorable. He loves to be barefoot as well. I can't keep shoes on him. He's a great sleeper and napper and an all around cute funny little boy!!
