Well Child Checks

All three kiddos went to the doctor for their well child check-ups. All got good reports:

Current Stats:

Kylie- 85% for height; 60% for weight
She had to get a booster of the chickenpox vaccine. She wasn't thrilled but didn't scream and I DIDN'T have to hold her down (major accomplishment)

Gavin- 37 lbs (50th percentile) and 41 inches (50th percentile)
Landon- 37 lbs (50th percentile) and 41 inches (50th percentile)
They both got half of their kindergarten shots--they split them so they didn't have to get so many next year.

It is amazing to me (and the doctor) how they boys are always so close or exactly the same height/weight.

Oh, and all three got FluMist...cross another one off the list. The Dr. said it is recommended to get it early this year...so we did.

Sad Landon story: Gavin got his shots first and Landon saw how I had to basically hold him down in my lap (not because he was crying just because the nurses wanted his hands held). When it came time for Landon's turn he was hiding under the table and then started screaming "It's hurts!!" He hadn't had anything done yet. So, it took a few extra minutes to get him ready and then he got his shots (and screamed--and then Gavin thought he needed to scream too). Anyways, we were walking out and Landon looked up at me and grabbed my hand and said....."Mommy, why did you let them hurt me?" It broke my heart!
