An Ava Update

So Ava had her 18 month well baby check on Wednesday February 2nd.
We got bad news. Ava lost 3 oz in the past 3 months, which has halted the progress we've been making. Ava also did not gain any inches either. So at her appointment little Ms. Ava weighed in at 17 lbs 11 oz and measured 29 inches tall. We are in size 3 diapers, but they she can fit in the size 2 diapers if she has to. Shirts, she can still fit in some 3-6 months, 6-9 months and 12 months. Paints are mostly 12 months except for either having a belt or safety pinning them so they stay up.

Its amazing she is so small because she eats so much!! She literally will eat everything on her plate. For an example tonight Phil fed her three baby Gerber jars of those chicken stix, 2 fruit bars, and a package of mumm mumm's (2 come in a package) and meat. When we went to the pizza place, about an hour after she ate dinner, she still continued to eat pizza crust.
We go through $50 of groceries for just Ava in one week. She drinks over 2 gallons of milk.

Our next step is to go back to the specialist, and possibly see a GI.

Friday we had her allergy test reading. Ava is allergic to Shell Fish, Dogs, Peanuts, Eggs, and several other things. UGH.....

Ava also now says full sentences today we were sitting in the car she said "shoe. where it go?" I had only brought one shoe for her....I've been a little out of it this weekend.

I'll explain more about that in my next blog.

Ava can also count...backwards and randomly, but she can count. She can also sing songs, dance, and try and sing along with songs on the TV. She is really smart. She can tell us what she wants. She seriously started using full sentences today.

Well I better go to bed if I have any hope if getting to work tomorrow.
