The boys had their 3yr wellness checkup with the pediatrician today. He was so excited to see them doing so well (and that it had been a while since we had to visit!)
The boys love to play with the scopes.

I told Trevor that only the doctor is allowed to stick the otoscope into Trevor’s ear. Trevor says, “I am a doctor too!”

Trevor is checking Brendan’s reflexes.

Brendan thought I said “Oh, Toe Scope!

He also used it to fill the tires on the cars on the walls.

Trying to get Brendan to stand on the scale was like trying to put a cat into a bucket of water. Each time I would try to stand him on the platform, he would spread his feet out wide or pull them up in front of them. If I tried to sit him on the baby scale, he would plank out straight. We finally had to have the nurse weigh herself and then weigh again holding him and take the difference. Naughty!
Brendan checked in at 36in tall and 28lbs, Trevor is 38in tall and 29.6lbs. They both got A+ checkups. Trevor got the fancy computer vision scan and it was perfect. Brendan sees his vision specialist at the end of the month.
Brendan has orders to get an x-ray of his right foot. He has a little turn to his foot and toes and they just want to check his skeletal structure. If the bones look good, we will just have to make a note for his PT to help us work on his stance and keeping his feet straight.
Both boys got flu shots and were super good!
Unbelievable! 3 year wellness check-up!! It sounds like it went well, and they didn’t appear upset to be at the doctor’s office. I can just picture what you went through to get Brendan weighed if he didn’t want to! 🙂 Even little kids can be very strong.
It’s so good to hear how good their check-up was, and how much they’ve grown. And I still can’t believe you’re talking about pre-schools!! Now if only the sleep-fairy could visit your house…
Lots of love and hugs,

Two A+ checkups…….Yessss. 🙂
Hope Brendan’s foot is OK, and therapy can insure things are straightened out.
“Doctor” Trevor, one quick question, How can you see, what the otoscope is showing you ?? 😉 😉 🙂
