We don't go back to the doctor until next month, so no updated stats. Although, I did take Avery to the doctor a few weeks ago and she weighed around 19 pounds with clothes/diaper on. The little faker had me thinking she had an ear infection. But, turned out to be just a cold. When we got to the doctor's office, she was all smiles and acting like nothing was wrong. She rolled around on the table and smiled at herself in the mirror. The nurse probably thought I was crazy for bringing Avery in. I had given her Advil, so she probably was feeling pretty good.
So, here's a little update on each of the girls -
Avery:
This little girl is really outgoing and smiles at strangers and loves attention. But, the second you put her in someone else's arms, she's a mess. She looks at us like we just handed her off to a monster! She eventually warms up to people, but it's a slow process.
She does not stop moving! Unless she's asleep, she's most likely moving. She can crawl, but prefers to scoot or army crawl to get where she needs to go. She has been trying to climb up on anything that is sturdy enough to hold her. We don't really have a lot for her to grab onto, so that usually means we are her jungle gym. Lately, she's tried to climb up on Morgan's back when Morgan's trying to crawl away.
We predict Avery is going to be the boss of Morgan. She's kind of a little bully. She pulls her around by the hair or helmet and steals her toys. Morgan is such a sweetheart and puts up with Avery's shenanigans right now. But, we are waiting for the day that Morgan gives Avery a big whack to the head. :)

Morgan:
She is doing great with her helmet and is over halfway through treatment now. I added a little bling to her helmet because everyone kept thinking she was a boy. The last straw was at Panera the other day after her doctor's appt... some guy was smiling at her as he walked by and said "hey there buddy". Ugh.
Morgan has 4 teeth coming in on the top right now (yikes!). The outside two have broken through before the middle two. I'm hoping she gets her two front teeth quickly so she doesn't end up looking like a vampire. She has been waking up at night crying and I think it's because of her teeth. Poor thing!
She's on the move these days. She can crawl on her hands and knees and move forward now. Before, she could only go backwards. She would just continue backwards until she ran into something.

| They would NOT sit still for pictures |

| This was probably the best shot (Avery is eating Morgan's bow) |
