3 years and 7 months

At Holland's 3 year check up with Dr. A, she weighed in at 39.5 pounds and is 40 inches tall.  Both are at the 97th percentile and make her BMI right on track.  They started taking her blood pressure and it was 92/60.  Hopefully she will continue to have low blood pressure like her momma.  She is talking very well for a 3 year old and knows a lot for her age.  She spelled out her name and counted to 10 in Spanish for Dr. A.  He was very impressed.  After her appointment, we took her to the bank to deposit her money she has collected in her piggy bank.  Holland helped me put the coins in the coin counter.  Then she held her cash and coin receipt and handed them to the teller.  She was so excited.  We told her she is saving money to go to college and she said, "I want to go to college.  College is cool." 

Britton is 7 months now and is changing every day.  She is saying "dadada" and one morning this week she said "dadada" when she saw Kirk.  I'm sure it wasn't intentional but it was nice to hear her say it to Kirk.  She will be transitioned over to all formula feedings this weekend.  She is eating stage 2 foods very well.  We haven't found any food that she doesn't like yet.  Britton still doesn't like to sit up on her own.  She prefers to be on her tummy or to be held.  We are starting to think she will be very strong willed like her older sister.   

So, what do we always do?  We go to Dixie for photos!  I was lucky to find a couple of matching outfits for the girls' photos.  Here are both girls' photos.  I love the bright colors!
