2 1/2 and 1/2

Okay, so I am WAAAY behind on this post, but I waited until I took Anastyn to her 6 month check to blog her stats! With hunting and Halloween we couldnt get her into the doctor until this week. I cant believe that she has grown so fast. Where did my little newborn go? She LOVES to sleep, finally! She'll sleep the 12-13 hour stretch at night, from 7:30 to 7:30-8:30. And then will take two naps a day, totalling to about 4-5 hours. I know I know, she is a sleeper, and I LOVE it. She laughs all the time now, especially at her big brother. Porter is her favorite toy! haha. She rolls NON-stop that it makes changing her diaper quite the chore. Talking is all we hear from her. And these little squeals when she gets excited. Her vocals are so cute, but not so cute when its in the middle of Sacrament meeting or Relief Society! She is my little drool monster. Her two bottom teeth are JUST barely popping through. They have been coming up and going down for the past 3 MONTHS! Poor thing. The jumparoo is her favorite thing to play in. We started her on the solids and is gradually getting better at using her little tongue. But so far she LOVES carrots the most. She isnt quite sitting up on her own yet, which is wierd, but I dont really push her to sit up...so I should work on that. I think she prefers rolling all over the floor to get to things than to stay sitting on one place. She has gotten up on her hands and knees quite a few times now, that I think she will crawl a little earlier than Porter did. Then maybe she will be able to actually follow Porter around like she wants to. She is such a happy baby, and adds such a sweet spirit to our home. We love her to pieces and cant wait to see what her sassy little personality has in store for us. Kameron says constantly that he can already see the "drama" coming out. haha. Men! Anyways, here are the stats from her doctors appt:

Weight: 15lbs 15oz --50th percentile
Height: 26 inches --50th percentile
Head Cir: 16 1/2 inches -- 25th percentile

Her weight and height are perfect the doctor said. But as usual my kids with the "petite" heads. haha. Last appt she was in the 10th percentile with her head, which is what Porter was always in. Either way, she is beautiful, and we LOVE her!!

She FINALLY loves her baths!!

Anastyn chewing on her foot waiting for the doctor. haha. Why do I even buy chew toys?

Now, onto the Porter man!! Everyday he never ceases to amaze Kameron and I with the things he learns. He talks NON stop, and can carry on a pretty good conversation now. I wont lie, the terrible twos are in full swing, but he has the sweetest and cutest moments as well. We find ourselves turning our heads so he cant see us laugh when he does something bad...but funny at the same time. He is still super accident prone and constantly looks like a beaten child. From scrapes on his chin from falling off a picnic table, to a bruise on his cheek from jumping and then falling off his bed. Despite the painful things he encounters, its amazing how tough he is and how fast he bounces back and is off doing the next crazy thing. Porter can now count to almost 20 in English, and can count to 10 in spanish. Yesterday he even surprised me and counted from 5 backwards to zero!! He is just way too smart for his own good! He has gotten SOO good at saying his prayers. I dont care that he repeats "Pease Bess sleep at night!" and "Please Bess food!" 10 times in every prayer, those things are important!!!! I will have to save all the cute things he says everyday for another post, because he is FULL of funny stories.

His stats:

Weight:32 pounds...still

Height: 38 inches

He is such a tank, that its nice to have a small little girl. He is already wearing 3T-4T clothes, and wears a size 9 shoe! We still have no idea where he got these genes! But Kameron keeps hoping for a football player, he might have just gotten his wish!! I cant believe you are getting so big Porter Monster!! We love you and are so proud of you!
