Doctor's Appointments

Yesterday Henry went for his 2 month check up. He is perfect of course! He is 24 inches long  which puts him in the 90th percentile for height! He might be the tallest kid! :)He weighed 13lbs 2oz which is 75th percentile. He is healthy but not very happy. His nose is still a bit stuffy from his cold which makes it hard for him to nurse. It is getting better though. He was super cranky yesterday after getting his shots. :(

Today we went back to the doctor so the big kids could get a couple of things checked and get their flu shots. I wanted to have Freddy's ears checked and the timing turned out to be perfect, he didn't really get the cold we all had but he does have an ear infection. First of the season, hurray! :( The only clue that something was up with him is that he hasn't been sleeping well. From now on I will remember that when he doesn't sleep well he usually has an ear infection. He was pretty mad at me for making him get a flu shot, but I will take that over having him get really sick.

Lucy needed to have something done about some warts on her fingers. One of them was very large which is why I made the appointment. She had a total of 5 warts on 3 fingers. The doctor put prescription strength stuff on them, then put a piece of medical tape over them and then strips of duct tape over that. Lucy has 3 fingers with pretty hot pink duct tape on them. :) Tomorrow we are supposed to take the tape off and they will be blistered up. Once the blisters heal we put this sticky medicated pad on it with duct tape over it. Every couple of days we are supposed to take everything off, and sand the warts with a sanding sponge from the hardware store and then put a new pad and tape back on until it is gone. She said the sanding off of the old dead stuff is an important step. Weird! It may take bribery to get this accomplished over the next few weeks. Lucy was only mildly upset about the flu shot and was quickly over it.

While we waited for Freddy's prescription to be filled we went up to play at the farm for a little bit. I posted a picture of that earlier.

 Freddy is doing great with potty training, he has had very few accidents! Lucy, of course, loves school so she is happy and doing well. Today was show and tell and they were supposed to be bring something transportation related, she brought a toy horse!  At pick-up the teacher told me they had fun discussing what animals you could and couldn't ride. :D

We are having fun around here, but I am exhausted!
