Alan is 44.25 inches and 44 lbs. 75%tile for height and weight right on his curb.
He was very cooperative, we got his height and weight easily, he did vision and hearing tests (and did fine) as well as 2 shots. (Although I did bring a lolipop for him, the doctor's office only did stickers). We had a long wait between the initial nurse visit and the doctor coming - for 10:45 appointment, we were done at 12:10!
Discussed some behavior issues with the doctor - so I have names of people to check out (if on plan). (Yes, we still have #2 issues).
It really was amazing the difference between ages 4 and 5 at his checkup - so much more cooperative. He even wore a hat and gloves today at HIS request - he wouldn't even wear gloves last year.
A friend came over today and we copied a DVD for him. He had a copy of old home movies transfered from 8mm to VHS to DVD. These were from the 1930's - at least one place on them
Echo Lake Park was still similar today. We were glad to do it - he has very little family left and these contained lots of rare footage of his mom and her side of the family.
Otherwise it's been a quiet kind of day. My husband caught up on this and that. He e-mailed a
cute Thanksgiving card to friends and past and present clients. One former client in Wisconsin wrote back and included the photo of the deer he got while hunting today. (He did this once before - I guess he doesn't get that not everyone is into hunting or photos of deceased deer).
I
think tommorrow we may finally get that pesky hall closet sorted. I need to get my hats and gloves out at last :(
