Medical update and language challenges

The whole family has had to go the doctor to get medical checkups as LWF requires a medical clearance report at the end of our time abroad. I had a heck of a time getting appointments for all of us in May but I managed. Here are Lexi's stats (I won't give you mine, but Stephen is underweight for his height and his cholesterol is 114. The doctor asked him, "Are you a vegetarian, or do you just eat very well?"):

Weight - 23 lbs, 8 oz
Height - 33.5 inches

She is developing well it seems like. Her latest language challenge is that to get down (to be lifted down), she says 'up-down'. We keep repeating just 'down' but she doesn't seem to get it. Her 'yeses' are quite clear and more frequent now and she will even occasionally say please when prompted.
