Three Year Stats

This is a little late but we had our well child visit today. Em turned three in March but was sick so we postponed her visit and then was sick again. So here's the 411 as of today. She weighs 28.5 pounds and is 36 inches tall. She is up to date on all vaccinations and fortunately we haven't had to give her too many. She can say more words than I can count and averages sentences 4-5 words in length though sometimes I'm the only one who understands her. She can spell her name and can sight read it as well. She knows mommy's "other" name is Lisa and knows her middle names (Chinese). She can count to 15 independently, knows all her colors, animals and animal sounds and 1/2 or more of the alphabet. She sings many songs even though she doesn't know all the words. She has a great appetite and eats so many things I have lost count. She loves being outdoors and being social. She loves to help in the kitchen and will rub her belly when something smells good. She has several "good" friends whom she asks to play with regularly. She prefers children her age or older though she does admire a baby now and then. She LOVES animals with dogs being her favorite. She will chase a pup and its owner down the street just to get a closer look. We recently began potty training and the past 2 days she has had much success. When she is trained she gets a new bike.

She and Eliza are almost exactly the same size...I think Eliza weighs 1/2 lb more.
Emme sounds like a delightful little girl! She's cute as can be! Hope she gets that bike soon!

Hi Lisa,
Emme is so adorable!! I am a FTIA mom as well. We are waiting our TA for our 2nd SN daughter and notice Emme was about the same size as Meisyn. I was wondering what size clothes Emme is wearing? Meisyn is 27.5 pounds and 37 inches tall and will be 4 in August!! Marin was 34 pounds at 20 months on Gotcha Day. SO, I NEVER knew Marin at 27 pounds!! lol

Thanks,
Jen

Hi Jen,
I can't find your email address anywhere so I hope you will see this. Emme is currently wearing a size 3T in most things. She always needs a 3 in tops and even has a few 4's that fit loosely but fit. Her pants are 3's but she can wear some 2's still if they had adjustable waists. Some 3 pants are a little long though with the summer cropped styles it's easier. When we were united last June, she was wearing 18 months mostly and was 25 pounds and 32 inches. She now has a little girl shape and not a baby shape. The thigh chubbies are gone and replaced with longer legs. She currently wears a size 6.5 or 7 shoe in a medium width. I hope this is helpful.

Lisa...
Jami had her 4yr old check last week. She weighed 31 lbs & is 38.75 inches...25% ht & wt. She was 25% at 3 as well, so while she's small...she's consistent...lol..
Although Lindsi usually hits the charts at 95% for ht % 45% WT..lol...
Jami had to get 4 shots & not even a whimper...I was so proud of her!!

Lisa,
I can't believe the photos you're taking! I can't go too long without checking in on Emme. When I see the sparkles of her eyes, she just looks like she is filled with love, wonder, and delight. I'm so glad she's doing well.

Do you have any advice about cameras? I'm ready for something more than point and shoot, but a little overwhelmed at the options. I'm just amazed at what you're capturing! You're inspiring me to take the leap!
