Day Tripper

We have details regarding the growth of our children! On Friday, both Lily and Jack had doctor appointments - Lily for her 4 year old check-up and Jack for his 9 month check-up. Lily and Jack were on their best behavior for the actual check-up but then both of them had to have shots - Lily 4 shots and the flu mist, and Jack 2 shots. Jack's crying was pretty limited, Lily on the other hand was a little more upset. Fortunately, as long as she can continue with the flu mist, it will be 7 more years before she needs another shot! Jack weighed in at 21 pounds and 28 inches - he was in the 50th percentile. Lily weighed in at 39 pounds and 41.5 inches, and was in the 75th percentile. A booster seat is in the near future!

On Saturday, Lily had her first day of soccer. While she participated in the drills, when it came to actual play time, she preferred to stay on the sidelines. We are going to give her another chance next week to participate...we are trying to talk it up this week! After soccer, we headed over to our old stomping grounds (Crofton) for friend Wyatt's first birthday party - Happy Birthday Wyatt - he also is lucky enough to be a blogger baby and there is a link to the right. On Sunday, we headed to Delaware for a get-together with Mom's friends from law school. Lily enjoyed playing with Ian, Jonah, and Oliver, and of course her brother.

Lily is making progress on her bike. She is a little wary of riding without one of us holding the bar, but then will demand that she be able to ride by herself. She has yet to figure out the brakes, so we are working on that. Jack is making progress by scooting and pulling himself up to a standing position. He has discovered the tupperware cabinet and it keeps him very busy. He is also getting a little better at bringing food to his mouth, and is toying around with a sippy cup.

Have a good week, enjoy the pics!
