A successful use of the potty

On the 6th, Baby Girl pulled off her diaper, walked over to the potty, sat on it and peed. I was very impressed. It was only the 3rd time she's gone on the potty and the first time it was entirely of her own volition. The other two times were because I could tell her was about to go so I put her on (once on her 2nd birthday and on one other occasion). Today she and Little Man have pediatrician appointments.

So our little lamb is more of a Baby Bird

Why??

Because any time we are eating anything that looks remotely interesting, she strolls over, tilts back her head and opens her mouth while gesturing at the food object of interest.

Anyway, she had her 2 year check up today.

Our DR is sending a referral to a pediatrician re: her assessed speech delay (which we had checked at KidsAbility about a month ago).

Her height is: 34.5 inches which the DR says puts her in the 75th percentile
Her weight is: 26.125 lbs which the DR says puts her in the 50th percentile

However; the nurse did the conversion from 11.9 kg and said it was 26.125 but an online conversion tool said "11.9 kilograms = 26.2350092 pounds"

Now, I'll also check using this: http://pediatrics.about.com/cs/usefultools/l/bl_kids_centils.htm

And it says:

At 2 years:

your child is 26.235 pounds, and that is at the 43rd percentile for weight.

your child is 34.5 inches (aka 2 feet 10½ inches), and that is at the 73rd percentile for height.

Little Man had a pediatrician appointment today

height: 51.5 inches tall - which the DR said puts him in the 20th percentile for boys his age

but the calculator I used last time says: your child is 51.5 inches, and that is
at the 19th percentile for height.

weight: 53.57 lbs (24.3 kg) - which the DR said puts him in the 10th percentile for boys his age

but the calculator I used last time says: your child is 53.57 pounds, and that is
at the 7th percentile for weight.
