15 month check up

On Monday, Allie had her 15 month check up. She's now 35 1/4 inches tall and 31 pounds 3 ounces!!! She's off the chart in both height and weight...in fact, the doctor said that she's actually the height of an average 26 month old! She commented on the fact that Allie "sort of makes her own growth chart." Other than that, she's hitting all of her developmental milestones and she's doing great. She can say tons of words, drink from a cup, use a fork, scribbles on paper, walks, runs, takes one long nap in the afternoon and sometimes a really short one in the morning, and is on the go ALL the time. She's just so busy!!!

We continue to be extremely thankful for what we've been given. Allie is our everything (cliche but true)! I struggle to even remember what life was like without her and I feel so lucky to be able to spend so much time with her this summer!

Last Friday, Cory built Allie a big sandbox in our backyard. As soon as our new computer comes (I finally broke down and bought one today), I'll post pictures. Allie has so much fun playing in her sandbox and it was fun to watch Cory's face seeing what he'd built and how much she loved it!

Have a great weekend and we'll hopefully have some great pictures to post after Sunday...we're going to a Minnesota Twins game becuase it's "Adoption Day" at the dome! We just hope Allie can sit through a couple innings.

I hope you are enjoying your summer with Allie. She is just so darn adorable. It's always awesome to see your kids' face when you can see that they appreciate all that you do for them. Enjoy the weekend and have fun at the game. Can't wait to see your updated pictures.
