All right. The results are in and my two youngest are growing like weeds! We had our well baby visits yesterday and even Hannah got a shot (they all got a flu shot in addition to the 6 month and 18 month immunizations). No one was very happy when we left but they did great. I was very proud of them.
Joseph is officially 28 inches long putting him in the 90% and weighing 19 pounds, 7 ounces which also put him in the 90% which was no surprise :) In fact he is the size in both height and weight that Hannah was when she was 14 months old! So though she is the oldest, she will not be the biggest for much longer! He started to crawl forward yesterday. It isn't pretty but he rocks himself, lunges, then gets up again....so almost like seal :) He is amazed that he is now able to get the toys we have maliciously been keeping out of his reach to motivate him to crawl :) He also said DaDa over the weekend. What a smarty!
Emily is officially 33.5 inches long putting her in the 91% for height and weighed 25 pounds which put her in the 65%. So.....she is tall and slender! Too funny ;0) She is getting her eye teeth and that seems to be bothering her appetite. We also counted up the words she can say now that she is 18 months old. We got 55 words. The doctor asked if she could say anything yet, and I told her how many words she can say voluntarily. She was shocked. She said the average for this age is 10! (Hold on for a bragamony....) She said that I have very smart kids! It was so nice to get so much good news.
Thanks for letting me brag on my kids once again :)

Ha ha ha...yeah Allen and I are thinking she must have lots of recessive genes working :)
Yes, Nic you are not kidding. It is so comforting to see that we are doing well and are on the right track. He is already trying to roll and pull his sisters hair and get their sippy cups. They sure have it coming :)
Yeah, Beth Joseph is bigger even than Emily was at this age. In fact, I think she wasn't this size until 9 months.
