quick updates

Maelie had her 2-month well child check on Friday. She weighs 12 lbs 6 oz (78th percentile), is 23.25 inches long (85th percentile), and her head circumference is 15.75 inches (94th percentile). She's a big, healthy baby. And we love her tons!

In other news, Hannah had her 3rd dental checkup last week, and she did awesome! During her first two visits this past year, she wouldn't let the dentist look in her mouth (let alone clean her teeth). This time, she was super brave and let the dentist (and his assistants) examine her teeth, do x-rays, clean her teeth, and give her fluoride. It turns out that the only thing Hannah was super afraid of was the purple balloon they gave her for being brave. Hilarious! I'm actually quite afraid of balloons myself (due to childhood trauma), but Hannah had never before been afraid of them. She and Scott had to actually let the balloon go up in the sky when they got home. Way too funny. :)

And here are a couple of pics...


 What a snuggly little sweetheart!

Hannah loves trying out all of Maelie's things. I love that she included the elephant/monkey ears. :)

Tomorrow we are headed to the doctor to have a consultation about when to do the surgery on Hannah's umbilical hernia  Wish us luck!

So funny that Hannah was afraid of the balloon! Let us know what the decision is about the surgery.
