2 year checkup

Last night was Stef's 2 yr checkup. She got to stand on the "big girl scale" and use the "big girl heighth measuring thingy". She was not impressed. But then again, she refused her nap but fell asleep in the car on the way to the doctor, which always makes for a very grumpy Stef.

She weighs 28 lbs and is 33" (which will make her 5'6" fully grown if that theory holds true). She's developing wonderfully, normal in all aspects. The development sheet they gave us says she should be saying I, ME, and YOU, which she doesn't, but it'll come in time. She should have at least 50 clear words in her vocabulary. She has well over 50 words I'm sure, but I didn't actually sit and count them. We're supposed to go off the whole milk and toddler toothpaste now. The doc was impressed with her progress in potty training. Next week is my vacation week to do intensive potty training with her.

My mother-in-law was very frustrated with Stef's potty training yesterday. She kept refusing to keep her pull ups on. Everytime she tried to put pants on the child, she'd run screaming "potty potty". Put her on the potty and nothing. Later she pee'd on the carpet, pee'd on the floor, and pooped on the floor (right next to the potty!!) Agh! I think Stef was just full of herself yesterday. My little Miss Independence.

Crap Crap Crap! Now my mom just called. She's sick and won't be able to watch Stef tomorrow. I can't take off work because my niece is supposed to career shadow me tomorrow, plus I have all next week off. My sister is busy, Wendy can't take off, Von is working. The last hope I can think of is Megan. I left her a voice mail. I know she's working at a Wendy's but don't know her schedule. I hope she calls me back really soon! I have one other thought but I don't think Steve would be comfortable with it. We shall see.
