Two Year Visit

Little Man had his two year appointment yesterday. All is good!

Weight - 29 lbs (65th percentile)
Height - 36 3/4"! (95th percentile)
Head - off the charts. AGAIN! Must be the protein shake he gets each morning with his 'dada'!

We voiced our concern over his legs (collapsed arches, feet stick out, knock kneed, legs rotated in) and the doc agreed it was time to consult with a pediatric podiatrist just to see if there is anything out of the norm to be concerned with or to explore invasive options (orthotics, etc.).

He got wapped again with a new bevy of shots including H1N1. The doctor had a good point regarding H1N1. Had there been more time the vaccine for this flu would have been included in the seasonal flu shot, but because development was too late all the hoopla has ensued as to whether the vaccine is safe. Good point.

Oh yeah, the doctor mentioned his teeth are great and that the two year molars look good. Two year molars? Didn't even know those had arrived! Again, another instance where Little Man has shown no signs of what must have been some discomfort. I've been brushing his teeth for months and the teeth he had yesterday had all been there for some time! Negligent parent? I hope not!

Love the stats...
Fayth's head has been off the charts since day one too. Just means "bigger hats!" I'd love to hear more about his legs and the molars. How many molars does he have...4 or 8? We'll chat on Skype soon.

He IS tall! Sully is probably only about 38 inches on a good day and he's going to be 5 in February! Our boys got both flu shots as well---not paranoid but feel like it was a good move.
