Busy, busy, busy

It seems we have been so busy lately...hopefully after the holiday rush I will have more time to post.

Quick kid updates...Ava is still enjoying school. I wish it was more than one day a week. I could use the time "off" and she could use the help with her social skills! She has finally partially cut one of her 2 year molars. Maybe by the time she goes to kindergarten she will have all of her baby teeth. And is seems that Anderson will be following the same pattern. He is almost 9 months and the Dr. could feel no tooth buds (that may be one of the only things they have in common!). His ears are finally infection free. He is into everything these days. I am starting to think that he may never speak. He is so quiet but that is because his motor mouth sister doesn't give him a chance to say anything. He usually stays up a little later than Ava so for that 1/2 hour when it's quiet he has to get in all his "talking" for the day. We had his 9 month check up this week. It was actually more like 8 months but since we were at the Dr. for an ear recheck he did it then so we wouldn't have to come back. He weighs 17.5 pounds and is 27.5". Still a little guy but he is 2 pounds and 1.5" ahead of where Ava was at 9 months. Maybe he won't be quite as shrimpy as her. She has always looked small but her size difference is becoming way more obvious as she gets older. She is literally nearly half the size of some of her friends. She weighs 22.5 pounds and is 33" tall. My nephew who is only 10 months is almost as big as her. Maybe she will shock us all one day and hit a huge growth spurt. I just hope she makes it to 5' as an adult!
