18 months!

Wow! This "year" is half over! So very hard to believe. Katelyn hasn't had her check-up yet, but will in about 3 weeks. New pediatrician is very hard to get into for well visits - which is really frustrating to me. Stats as of 10/11/11: Height: 31.25 inches (51st percentile) Weight: 21 pounds (weighed with shoes and a wet diaper!) (6th percentile!!) Head circumference: (Don't remember - need to find her paper) Sleep: Katelyn sleeps pretty well currently - 7:30pm or so until around 6:30 or 7am. She generally takes one nap - 90 minutes to 2 1/2 hours in length in the afternoon. She would like to nap earlier in the day that we'd like, so sometimes she'll sneak in a cat nap in the car in the morning, but that generally messes up her afternoon nap. Eating: She pretty much likes just about everything! Veggies are not her favorites, but she'll eat peas and green beans. She absolutely loves fruits - I'm not sure of one that she doesn't like. Otherwise, she eats typical toddler foods - cheese, chicken nuggets, mac & cheese, yogurt, cottage cheese, hot dogs, etc. She is starting to drink some milk for us, but prefers her juice. She still nurses once per day at bedtime, but seems to be losing interest in that. Play: She loves Brendan's trains, but also loves her animals - we have a Little People barn that she enjoys as well as some Play Mobile toys. She's starting to really show interest in books, which I hope will help with her talking more. Speech: She is still a little behind on her words. I would say that she has a few more words than last month. At her well visit in October, we'll check her ears again and if they aren't better, then we will be talking tubes with the ENT. We're finishing up some antibiotics now - I think the fourth round since May.
