Two Year Doctor's Appointment

Tate had his two year check up today with a brand new doctor. It went great. He is 34 inches tall and weighs 25 pounds. Both of those fall around the 30-40th percentile. So he's not the biggest kid on the block, but he's happy and healthy.

Tate is still not a fan of doctors, but mommy loves this new guy! He took the time to really sit down and discuss things. He was wonderful. And Tate actually did pretty well with him. Of course, just as he was getting comfortable, the nurse came in and gave him some shots. But now, except for an annual flu shot, we're all done with those until kindergarten!!! (I've been looking forward to saying that since Tate was born)

And Tate amazed me with his ability to forgive. We were in the parking lot walking to the car, not 5 minutes after he'd just gotten his shots, and Tate pointed to his leg and said, "Tate's owie all better. Thank you, lady. Lady so nice." Can you believe that? What a sweetheart.

Paul and I got a kick out of Tate's comment about the "Lady so Nice!" What a kid! Mac was mad at the doctor and the lady for days after his shots... except he liked the band-aid.

What a big boy. It is so fun to see him grow. He sure seems to talk well putting words together. For him to be able to think and express that,it was so sweet.

He is just such a sweet little boy. I had a lot of fun watching him play at our house today. He was so sweet with the baby and so adorable with all the ladies. I'm so sorry that my dogs scared him! Hopefully he'll forgive them too someday.
