Well Check-Ups

We had Kate's 1 year check up today with Dr. Bean. She weighed in at 16 pounds and 11 ounces with her socks and diaper on. I'm not sure why they didn't strip her down to weigh her today. She's in the 3rd percentile for weight. Her length was at 28 1/2 inches and put her in the 25th percentile. Her head was in the 55th percentile. She looks perfectly healthy and is developing as she should, so everything is fine. It's a little frustrating that her percentiles keep moving down when she eats like a little piggy. Kate got 4 shots today, but is doing well with a dose of Tylenol so far. Poor pumpkin.
Rachel had her 4 year (well, 4 1/2 year) well check up -- She weighed in (fully dressed/no shoes) at 40 pounds, in the 75th percentile and was 43 inches tall, in the 90th percentile for height. She is perfectly healthy and developing normally as well. =) She got 3 of her 6 Kindergarten shots today and will recieve the other 3 at next years well check. She was tough and hardly cried. I had let her know they might give her some shots and promised that if she did well we would get her a chocolate shake (no cherry) at Chickfila. She was a trooper and was enjoying her shake not too long after the appointment was over.
Noah has his 7 year check up next week -- It will be interesting to see what his stats are.
