Okay, I've been a bit busy. I'm going to go back a month.... both girls had their yearly check-ups! It was actually 2 days before the last time I took Grace to the ER for breathing trouble (bronchitis with asthma again). Grace, at 4 years old, was 42 and a half inches tall and weighed 43 pounds. She's in the 90th percentile for both height and weight.

Marion was 29 inches tall and weighed 21 pounds. She's in the 50th percentile for height and weight. Just for comparison, Grace was 31 inches and 26 pounds at one year old. Although it doesn't seem like too big of a difference, it really is. Grace was always in the 90th/95th percentile for height and weight. Both girls had great check-ups. Dr.M commented that Marion's muscle tone had become normal. Marion had a round of shots and Grace cheered her on and comforted her during them.

I'm suspicious that germs we picked up that day led us to the ER just 2 days later... but other than that, it was a good day :)
