The Coronado Family

OH MY GOSH this girl is too freakin' cute! She kind of has the whole mullet look going on right now so even though her piggies look all together, within minutes all the hair at the crown of her head was sticking straight up. The back did stay in all day.

Frankie had her well check up the other day. Let's just say it did not go so "well." Health wise she is doing great. She weighs almost 22 lbs. and is about 29 1/2 inches long. She is average on her height and weight, but has a huge head, something that her doctor likes to joke about every. single. time. we see him :) Now let's back up to when Bella was a baby at the doctor...She never fussed, she never cried until I wanted to cry with her, she was just happy to see Dr. Kramer, happy to be there (she did cry just a couple times after shots). Sophie same thing only even better. She never cried after shots, smiled at everyone, loved playing with Dr. Kramer and so on. Totally what you would want in a child after the doctor tells you he is going to give them a bagillion shots. Frankie. Not so much. If Dr. Kramer even looked at her she would scream. If he touched her, she screamed. Same thing with the nurse. And if that didn't already suck, I have never heard her cry like I did when she got her 4 shots, oh, and her finger pricked too, so I thought "what the hell" and cried right along with her. Oh yeah, and did I mention that I had Sophie, Mason and Ella with me too (but secretly that was ok since they are all the world's greatest kids, it was just a tiny bit cramped in the exam room). The hardest part of it all is that Dr. Kramer is german and has a very strong accent and talks very quiet which makes me crazy, so all the while Frankie is crying, he is telling me all this stuff, and I just sort of nod and act like I am totally getting what he is saying...NOT! Oh well. I guess I should be happy that we are some of the few who have health insurance right now and can take our kids to the doctor. I just do not look forward to the next visit at all! A few things about Frankie right now...
~says mamma, daddy, bella, up, down, bath, more, nose, hmmmm I know there are more...
~points out all of her body parts, nose being her favorite one
~can wear piggy tails :)
~she can finally get up by herself without having to use something to pull on
~she can run (or walk really, really fast), but her legs get going to fast and she does a face plant
~climbs up on everything, makes me crazy!
~stands up in her highchair, which just pisses me off (yes I have a highchair with a belt but somehow she manages to get her scrawney little but out of it)
~signs quite a few things like all done, more, thank you...
~fully understands the word "no" and whenever she hears it gets this really pathetic little face and an even more pathetic little whine, soooo hard for me to not laugh at this one!
Guess that is it for now! I am really surprised that my girls are not up yet, or that Mason and Ella are not here either, but totally enjoying the quiet! Have a great day!
