Anyway, we went to the doctor today, and have new measurements...
Weight: About a half-ounce below 20 lbs- which puts Alex just below the 75th percentile.
Height: 28.5 inches- putting Alex right between the 75th and 90th percentiles.
As far as her development, she is crawling more and more on her hands and knees, and less using the "crippled soldier" technique. Also, she is beginning to mimic sounds that we make. I can go for minutes in the car coughing back and forth with Alex, or doing raspberries. She is also pulling herself up wonderfully and sitting up without assistance.
Alex is also starting to eat yogurt and very mild swiss cheese, and has been enjoying cut up pears, mangos, bananas, carrots and avocados for months now!
Nedra and I also had our first non-family babysitter last weekend and it went swimmingly! We plan to explore our newfound freedom often!

So, what's the official weight? Does she REALLY weigh more than her little cousin who is 9 months older than her??? Elizabeth weighed in at 19 lbs, 4 oz. at her 18 month check last week (a few days early). No hand-me-downs for you guys!!!
