Healthy Girl


Last week, Londyn and I went in for her 18 month well child check. I dread these visits, not only because of the vaccines but because the minute we enter the exam room... she starts crying/screaming until the appointment is over. Exhausting... would be an understatement.

This time, Londyn actually managed to make it through the temperature, measuring and weight checks without a peep. What a relief! When Dr. Rollin came in to see us, Londyn put on her sass and charm by showing off her dance moves and all the words that she knows.

We were excited to hear that she has grown 2 inches taller and 2 lbs heavier! She is in the 88th percentile for weight and 97th percentile for height. Dr. Rollins thinks Londyn will be tall if she keeps going at this rate!


Now for the big news that I have been hiding for the last week! Because of Dr. Rollins suggestions for Londyn's lack of sleep, she has been sleeping for an entire week! Apparently, Londyn wasn't getting enough sleep during the day. When she started showing signs of dropping her morning nap at 13 months- I prematurely took it away! Boy, was that a mistake! Dr. Rollins recommended to let her sleep whenever she wants, for as long as she wants and go to bed earlier than I was putting her down. So, basically she sleeps A TON now and through the entire night! We'll see how long this lasts, but for now- I'm lovin' it!

She looks so tall in just her diaper! So glad that you are getting more sleep!
I think Andrew was off the charts in both height and weight so it's no surprise where Londyn is in that department!!
