Alani's 2 year old stats


As we suspected, Alani is a heavy girl, weighing in at 28 lbs, 3 oz (75%) and she also grew to 35 inches (75%). She no longer needs whole milk, the Dr. says. Of our 3 girls, she is the heaviest yet at 2 years. Man, Mana's 4 and only weighs 4 more lbs than Alani. We also found out that the strange circles on her tongue are a genetic condition which Robb also has called "geographic tongue". It's not a harmful condition, but it could cause your tongue to be sensitive to certain foods. It makes your tongue look like a map with topography on it, and the topography moves around a lot.

What cute girls you have!

I have geographic tongue also. People look at me sideways when I tell them about it. Not many people have heard of it. It is quite uncomfortable at times- citrus foods (which are some of my favorites) tend to be the worst offenders for me. I find that if I eat yogurt and take probiotics regularly, it stays pretty well controlled. I hope it is not too big of a problem for Alani (or Rob for that matter).
