Colby had his 3 year checkup this past tuesday. I was interested to see how he would this year. He used to HATE the doctor's office. Over the last year though he has made great progress and started doing a lot better. I think when he was younger it was just all about stranger anxiety and someone taking him from his mommy. He's a social butterfly now and totally over that! I talked to him the night before and that morning about where we were going. He seemed excited and happy about going. I was so proud of him he was so good the ENTIRE time. From the moment we got there he was cheering Yay doctor! I thought that was so cute and funny. he waited very patiently in the waiting room with me. Then when they called his name and the nurse took us back to measure & weigh him he did wonderfully! They even took his blood pressure and did well with that. His height was 37 inches, his weight 35 lbs, and his blood pressure was great I don't remember the numbers now. He grew 2 inches and gained 2 lbs since his 2 year checkup. He's still in the 50-75%. His growth has slowed down but he's obviously still growing at a nice pace b/c he's been in the same percents since he was a baby.
We didn't have to wait long in the room until the doctor came back which was nice. Colby did great with the doctor too! This was only our 2nd time to see her and he did wonderful. She checked him out all over and he talked to her and had a great time. She said it looked like he was doing great. She was impressed that he had only been in twice since last year. I am so thankful each time we go for a well child visit. I know we are so blessed to have had such a healthy little boy! I pray he stays that way! Since he did so well at the doctor and we finished up so quick I promised him a trip to Target. I have been wanting to let him pick out a baby toy for baby brother or sister so he picked out a little toy to attach to their carseat! He was so proud of himself! I am too I know he's going to make a great big brother!
