Today was Jack's ACTUAL appointment for his 3 year check up. Yes, I showed up last week on the wrong day.
I l-o-v-e our pediatrician. Dr. Andy is kind, gentle, realistic and my kids adore him. I am comfortable talking to him about anything- trivial to serious-and he always listens intently and has great insight. Jack weighed in today at a whopping 42lbs and is 39" tall. I make big babies...both have always been at 90th %ile or above from day 1 on height and weight. He answered all my questions, reassured me that he would most likely not go to Kindergarten in pull-ups, that he would eventually sleep in his own bed (without me) and that his crooked feet would straighten themselves out. Jack was a great patient-answered lots of questions and got a perfect bill of health. We are going to screen his tv/books/videos even more (no more scooby or halloween(ish)---he loves pumpkins, bats, halloween themed things for some reason--- content) and change our night time routine a little in hopes that his bedtime fears will start to fade. No shots today, thank goodness!
Jack's favorite thing to do....if there is a sink, he'll find it, and stand there as long as you'll let him~
