Sidney's 2 year stats

This little girl takes our breath away. She is such a beauty and we love her to pieces.
Today we took her for her 2 year well-baby visit (from now on, these are considered "well-child" visits, but I'm going to hang on to the word baby for as long as possible). The doctor checked her from head to toe and said she's perfect. We have to agree :)
I've been calling her "skinny minnie" and Ryan will call her "scrawny" and here's proof: she weighs 24.8 lbs which puts her in the 23%-tile and is 34.5 in tall which puts her in the 66%-tile. No wonder none of her pants stay up!

As for other highlights at 2, here you go...
  • She has 2 extremes: loving, sweet, adorable or whiny, crabby and screaming.
  • She's usually the latter in the car and today Regan told her "Sidney, you're giving me a headache. No more whining and crying." I ditto that.
  • She has cold hands like her mommy (must mean a warm heart too)
  • She refuses to sleep past 6:30am and many mornings is awake before 6am.
  • She sleeps terribly overnight and generally makes her way into our bed. Naps are even worse.
  • Potty training is finished in my mind; but she refuses to go at school and has a bladder of steel.
  • Her absolute favorite past time is to play with is babies. She will feed them, talk to them like a mommy, put them to bed and just downright love them.
  • Books are another favorite and she can unload an entire bookshelf in 3 minutes.
  • She loves to eat, most anything and everything, but she will devour fish as fast as I can cut it. It's quite comical to watch!
  • She enjoys being right next to me every step of the day, from cooking to playtime. She remains a mama's baby and that's just fine with me!
