This morning we headed to Dr. Huggins office for
Emory’s 3 year check-up and Cason’s 9 month check-up.
I was so excited to learn that Emory gained nearly 3 pounds since her 2 ½ year check-up in July. She weighed 27.4 lbs. (16th percentile) and is 38 inches tall (75th percentile). She passed her hearing test with flying colors and got her blood pressure checked for the first time (well maybe not the FIRST time, but the first she can remember). She told Dr. Huggins all about her horsee birthday cake and was a very good girl during her check-up.
Cason gained 2 pounds 2 inches from his 6 month check-up. He weighed 20.8
lbs. (60th percentile) and is 28.75 inches long (54th percentile). Dr. Huggins could not believe how strong he is and said she feels he will be walking (independently) soon. Cason was on target or above target in all of his milestones. Dr. Huggins said his gums were very swollen so more teeth are definitely on the way!
Cason had to get his finger pricked so they could draw blood for a routine lead test. He did not shed one tear because he was to busy trying to get the band aid off the nurses hand. Emory on the other hand did not like them taking Cason's blood and got very concerned that the nurse was hurting him. She did not relax until it was all over with.
Dr. Huggins said that I had two healthy cutie pies, which I am so very thankful for!
