Okay I have to write about Landen's doctor's appointment just the other day. He is a very intelligent little boy and knew exactly where we were driving too, so he cried all the way there and covered his ears because he didn't want the doctor looking in his ears. Luckily for me I got to make the appointment while Steve was on vacation so that he could go with me and help hold him down. It was funny and sad at the sametime, and Steve and I are trying to tell him he has a big surprise at home and we can get a chocolate donut if he lets the doctor look in his ears. (Landen had tubes put in his ears a little over a year ago). His left tube is out and still waiting for the right tube to fall out. Well I never have to take Landen to the doctor's because he stays pretty healthy. So when we got into the room I found out he was due for his Hepititis A shot and they did the whole 3 year check up even though he won't be 3 for another month.
- His head measurement was in the 40th percentile which is really good considering we have been on the low end of the charts since he was a baby.
- His height was 37 1/2 inches tall, which he was in the 75th percentile. He has always been a long baby.
- His weight was 28lbs., which I was scared they were going to say something to me because I think they think I starve my kid to death (he's just not an eater and a picky one at that). So we are finally in the 30th percentile for our weight which the nurse told me they were not going to worry because he has always been on the low end of the chart for his weight since he was a baby.
Well I have to say Landen did a good job and his big surprise - A NEW CURIOUS GEORGE DVD!!! And he got the donut promised to him but he took like 2 bites and he was done with that- no wonder my kid doesn't gain any weight. Wish I had this problem!!!
