A couple of weeks ago the babies had their 18-month check up (I know…I’m a little behind)
Here are their stats: Mason 34in & 26lb 5oz . Mackenzie 35in & 28lb 10oz.
I can’t believe how big they are getting. To put their size in perspective, Syd was 36in and 30lbs at 2, and she was considered big. These two are GIANT sized!! They say about 50 words (including Sydney) and are starting to put together 2-3 word sentences. They have started to say please, which is so cute. They can climb up the rock wall side of our playground, which makes me incredibly nervous. They have started using the potty, but not on a regular basis. I really just wanted to introduce them to it, but they have both been successful, which is great. They think it is a game. They are FINALLY constantly sleeping through the night. I think this is my favorite accomplishment. I was beginning to think they it would never happen. They have been sleeping really well for about 3 weeks now. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it will continue. Everyday they learn a new skill or say a new word. Their development is so fast right now. They are a lot of fun. They have such different personalities. Mason is my charmer and Mama’s boy. He is still kind of demanding, but a total boy’s boy. He likes balls, bats or anything that can be used like a bat. His favorite thing to do is play in the huge flowerpot outside. He thinks it is his personal dirt pile. Macky is reserved, sweet, but has a heck of a temper. She is definitely the sneakiest one in the house. I guess the quiet ones usually are! She loves going down the slide, but will not play in the dirt with Mason. She usually just pokes it with her finger and then moves on to something else. I don’t think she likes to get her hands dirty. They are starting to play together, which also means that they are starting to fight a lot more. We’ve had several know down drag out fights over the grocery cart and other toys lately. I have a feeling that these fights will probably get worse before they get better. I love how all three kids interact and play together. You can really see how much they all love each other. The dynamics of three is never dull that’s for sure, but I wouldn’t change it for the world!!

Mason the Chef. He loves to wear an apron while I cook.
Smiling Macky. She is such a happy little girl.
