Two-Year-Old Check-up

In an amazing turn of events, Seth was just a fifth of a pound shy of 25th percentile at his check-up. He tipped the scales at 24.8 lbs, which means he's gained almost a pound in the two weeks since his last ear infection. He was 34.5 inches tall. Since he is always following his curve, she thinks his leanness is do to genetics, not diet, so he is allowed to start 2% milk. She was pleased with his progress with his speech. It was a good visit, especially since it was the middle of naptime! Seth got his second Hep A shot, and barring any more infections that require IM antibiotics, he could be shot-free until kindergarten prep. She told me today that FluMist may be approved for 2 year olds by flu season, and she would recommend that for Seth since he didn't do well with the flu shot last year. He walked out blowing kisses to all the staff, and that won him not one, but two stickers on his way out the door.
