2 year check-up



Peyton had a 2 year check-up recently and it's always fun to go and see how he is growing - here are his numbers: weight 24.69 lbs 12.4 percentile
length 35.25 inches 74.23 percentile

So he is actually gaining some weight and is fairly tall. Other than that, the appointment wasn't too exciting but that's good!

He is still so active and such a busy-boy and wants to explore everything all the time! We finally weaned him off his binky and it wasn't so bad but since then he hasn't been going to sleep as easily, meaning he puts up a fight most times but I think it's more of a stage than related to the binky because he has been throwing pretty awful tantrums lately too! They are almost unbarable for me because I feel bad for him and me and don't quite know how to deal with them especially in public but I am trying different things and learning.

He is also starting to say 2 words together and its super cute for him to be talking more even though it's still very unclear! When he isn't being stubborn and throwing a fit, he is in such a cute stage and learning a lot! He loves to watch the trains come by and runs to the window to see them - he also loves loves loves playing with his cars/trains/trucks; being outside; playing in water; and being a boy jumping off the couch and running around!

It's fun to read about this stage and know what I'm in for. I'll have to call you for tantrum advice! It sure seems like every stage has its cute things and its difficult things.
