I took Ethan to the doctor today for his 8 yr old well check. It's a few months late but I'm tyring to avoid going every six months like we did when he was younger. His asthma has been doing so well the past few years that I've been able to stagger off most of his appointments for that exact reason. And if I do it in October then I can get his flu shot along with all of his refills for the next year, so it all works out.
He is 55" or 4'6" tall and 76 lbs. The only set back is he didn't do so well with his mini eye exam. 20/70....my baby might need glasses. I have to schedule an appointment with the eye doctor soon. I think he's going to be near sighted like the rest of us. I can just imagine him now in little glasses....how cute! Maybe he would've seen the pole coming if we knew sooner; but then of course running backwards wouldn't have helped that!
They had him do his first urine sample and he was so embarrassed he did the speed walk back into our waiting room and sat down as fast as he could with the silliest look on his face.
***"Mom, they made me pee in a cup!"
He just couldn't believe that they actually made people do such a thing. I told him that it was normal and grown ups do it almost every time they go to the doctor and just just means that he's getting older.
***"I did exactly what she (the nurse) said to and I filled it all the way to the top of the line."
I was laughing on the inside and silently hoping that he put the lid on tight.
