Here is what the front of my hair looks like.Today Morgan had her one year check up. She is now into the 19 pound category. She was 19.05 pounds. The poor baby had to get 5 shots!!! It was horrible!!! She is still acting clingy 8 hours after the visit. She is not quite herself. We have, also, had to take her OFF of whole milk. We just started her on whole milk 2 weeks ago, but she is not able to handle the fat content. The doctor suggested that we switch to 2 % milk, and see if she gets better. If she doesn't get better, we will have to give her the second step formula that companies make for toddlers. I hope she can tolerate the milk! Other than that, she is right on target for everything. She even has two more teeth- for a total of 6!!!
We went to Jaden's old school after the doctor's visit. Everyone was so excited to see them. Jaden's three teachers from the baby room were there. They had never met Morgan, so it was an "oooooohhhhh, aaaaaawwwwww" moment. Of all of the kids that Jaden went to school with as a baby, there is only one left (and it is the owner's grandbaby), so she wasn't able to see her former school mates. Morgan enjoyed seeing all of the babies. She even got up in a high chair and had a cracker with them.
We headed home at 1 PM, and the girls fell right to sleep in the car. Jaden slept for 3 hours, and Morgan slept for 3 1/2 (so, I guess they were pretty worn out).

Have you tried powdered or evaporated instead of fresh milk? A lot of times people (like me) who have a slight intolerance of milk, but not a true allergy, can handle processed milk products, such as cheese, yogurt, and canned or dried milk, even if we can't handle fresh milk. Reconstituting milk from canned evaporated milk or powdered milk may be something she tolerates better, and is cheaper than fresh. I know both Ems and Bridey never would drink whole milk, but Emma will drink 1% or less and Bridey can drink non-fat, yet both of them can tolerate 2% and even whole milk if it's mixed from powder or canned milk. The processing it goes through makes it easier for them to digest. (They can also drink shelf-stable tetra-pac milk, but that's even more expensive than fresh, so I didn't suggest it.)
