Check-ups

Both kids had their annual physicals this morning. They were super well behaved at the doctor's office and even talked to her. Yeah for our new pediatrician!! They are both in the 25th percentile for height. Lucy is in the 40th percentile for weight, she is a very muscley little girl. I can't remember what Freddy was but I do remember that he isn't too many pounds under
Lucy.

The doctor looked in Freddy's ears and said to me "he isn't much of a complainer is he?" Both ears are infected which would explain why he has woken up at night a few times recently, but he has not acted sick or in pain at all. He also got a shot today but he is totally happy playing with his sister now. He is a very happy and, other than his ears, a very healthy growing boy.

Lucy got a referal to see an orthopedist about her feet. Her feet are a bit curved and the worrying (to me) part is that she is still wearing the same size shoes as she was a year ago. Kids are supposed to blow through shoes right? It's been good on my wallet but worrisome. They got us in with doctor's P.A. in two weeks, we would have had to wait more than a month to see the doctor. Lucy will get checked out and possibly have some tests ordered (like an xray). Then if there is something going on with her feet she will have an appointment to see the doctor. Overall, Lucy is a happy, healthy and very smart little girl.

My kids are awesome!
