Well Checks...

I decided to book the girls' 4 and 2 year well checks at the same time this past Friday. They did great. Lauren received four shots, two in each arm. Emma and I went in the hall for that while Bill stayed in the room with Lauren. Then, Emma got her one shot in the arm.
What totally surprised me were their stats. Lauren is an impressive 41" (3', 5") and svelte at 34 lbs. Emma is super tall for her age at 36", and keeping with her true form, weighed in at 36 lbs! She weighs more than Lauren :-)
The doctor actually recommended we put Emma on a "diet". I tried not to laugh. I mean, come on, she's 2. It is not like we are eating Big Macs 5 days a week. I really had to think hard on where we introduce fat into her diet on a regular basis. Her 3 glasses of milk a day was the only item with higher fat content, so I switched her to skim milk (yuck). I'd also take this more seriously if her height to weight proportion was out of whack. Bill was really big as a baby and you'd never guess looking at him now. Emma is just taking after him!
