18 Month Check

Kyra had her 18 month appt. with Dr. Byrne yesterday. Paige stayed home with Phil while we went and Kyra was VERY concerned when we got in the car without the baby. In fact, she cried more about leaving Paige behind than she did about getting TWO shots! She was a very good girl at the doctor's office except for fussing when the doctor wanted to feel her tummy. She even stood on the big girl scale and at the ruler to have her height measured. She is officially 22.6 lbs on their scale and 30 inches tall!! Ok, so the weight was at least in part due to the fact that she was fully clothed and last time was only wearing a dry diaper, but we'll take it since it means she doesn't have to go back for 6 months!!! Yay!
Also, Paige laughed out loud tuesday for the first time! Phil was talking to her and being silly and she broke out in a great big grin and then laughed several little chuckles. So cute!!!!
We took the girls to the Sandy Mountain Festival Parade tonight and they were both very good and had a blast! Paige stared as everything went by and Kyra switched off sitting with John and Amy and didn't even try to run into the parade once. I think her favorite parts were when she realized there was a dog sitting next to her and stealing all of John's waterbottles from him. She did seem to like watching the parade too. :)
