Well, all three kids were overdue for doctor appointments so I felt ambitious and scheduled all three at the same time. I now know that this was a bad idea. Poor PJ had the hardest time with it. All three kids also had to have shots. I thought that since Kaiden had been struggling with shyness throughout the exam that he would be hardest to get to give a shot to, but as PJ watched him, the tears started then and turned into outright screams when it was her turn. It was the most awful moment of my life so far. Anyway, none of the kids had a really bad reaction to the shots, which is certainly a good thing. Here are their stats:
PJ 42" tall 41.4 lbs. = Between 85th and 90th percentile for height and weight.
Kaiden 38" tall and 34 lbs. = Between 90th and 95th percentile for height and weight.
Matthew 29" tall and 18 lbs.= 90th percentile for height and 9th for weight.
Matthew sounds like he's skinny but he's actually quite the chunky monkey. He's also now starting to pull him self up to standing on anything he can get a good grip on and can stand on his own for a couple seconds at a time without toppling. Boy is he growing fast!
PJ is starting to look more like a big kid everyday and less like my baby. We were talking at the doctor's about her getting ready for kindergarten next year, and I'm battling mixed emotions about this. Yes, I'm proud of her for reaching such big milestones, but I'm not ready to release her to the world!
Kaiden is growing by leaps and bounds in both size and mind. He's now wearing the same size clothes as PJ and knows as many words too. I think he's smarter than me!
We're heading out on our cruise this week, so stay tuned for the Morgan family adventure 2008!
