Charlie's 2 year checkup and Chloe's 39th week!!

Hello all!

So this morning Charlie had his 2 year old appointment and he was such a good boy! He loved all of the fun decorations at his new pediatricians office. I've never seen someone have so much fun in a doctor's office before! The doctor was very nice and fun with Charlie too. She made sure to show Charlie what she was going to do by demonstrating on Charlie's Olaf doll (Olaf as in Snoopy's chubby brother) before she'd do it on him. Charlie looked great all over and the doctor was even impressed by how well Charlie understood her and took directions :) By the end of the appointment Charlie was checking our throats with the tongue depressor and checking his own heart beat. He's a natural :) We did though sign up for a speech evaluation for Charlie because he's not really talking as many words as he could be at this age. It's free if he's under 3 so it wouldn't hurt and the Doctor is not worried about his speech at all because Charlie is so good at understanding us and all. She says it won't hurt and can only help and sometimes all kids this age need is just a little boost to get him jabbering it up. Also she said it's great that Charlie is starting preschool because sometimes just being around other kids his age will help get him to start talking it up. Yup you heard right Charlie is starting preschool! He starts tomorrow actually! He's all set with his very own lunch box and everything :) It's a great little school, Charlie even made a friend while we were taking a tour of the place so I know he'll have a great time :)

As for Chloe we're still waiting! Apparently she's a very happy baby but that doesn't mean I'm a comfortable mama :P I'm sooooo done! I want to meet this baby already! I'm doing weekly appointments now and so far nothing yet so who knows when we'll finally meet this little baby! I'm just hanging in there dealing with being super tired, having migraines, and being uncomfortable and all that fun stuff that comes with these last weeks that seem to go on forever! Keep your fingers crossed for soon because I'm officially done! Done done done!
