*Ro had her fifteen-month well-check doctor's appointment, and it went fairly well. Due to the fact that Romey shot up three inches in three months she unfortunately hadn’t gained more than two ounces of weight (not concerning, but hopefully “not a trend,” as the doctor put it). Ro also isn’t communicating "with words" (only babbles, grunts and points) so she needs a speech evaluation. We’re shocked that she’s not saying “Avery”—the word she hears the most often! And, to top it off, Ro’s umbilical hernia hasn’t sufficiently closed so we’re going to see a specialist. All in all it was a good doctor's appointment, and these concerns are all very, very minor so we'll just tread our way through it until Romey has an indented belly button and is telling us to "be quiet!"--one of Avery's favorite "parental phrase" that she uses on Dan and me.
*Avery had spring break last week so we headed to Bloomington for a few days. We ran a lot of errands, saw my parents’ new house, and my mom even took the girls for portraits (something that I just don’t do—see below). We ended the week with a fun pool/pizza party at my parents’ hotel (my Dad had meetings in the suburbs Friday and Saturday), and then a Menning clan celebration at Hugo’s Frog Bar and Fish House (delicious!).
And now, it’s another week, and I’m grateful that the calendar is relatively clear! Yeah!
Have a great week!
