I took all three kids to the clinic for Paxton and Harlow's yearly check up. You know, because Harlow turned 2 on May 8th and Paxton turned 4 on........December 28th (So I'm a little behind, sorry middle child!). I knew taking all three of them wouldn't be any more difficult than taking just Harlow alone. She's the wild one that needs to be told "no" a million times, needs to be taken off of the desk, told to not stand on the bed, not to climb up to the sink and turn the water on, don't touch the garbage because there's germs. etc... But these three kids are loved at the clinic, by our nurse and Dr. Frannie. And Dr. Frannie is so glad that she can now call Harlow her "friend". She wasn't sure if Harlow would ever come around to loving her quite the same way the boys do, but I think she's almost there. She was compliant, listened to directions, answered questions, and even smiled. And there were NO TEARS!!!!! By anyone! And there were three shots given, one to Harlow and two for Paxton. The second after Harlow was poked, the nurse told her she was done and she sweetly replied, "okay". Such a proud mama!
Some quick stats....
Harlow at 2 years old- weight- 24 lbs 14 ozs (22%) and height- 33 1/4 inches (43%)
Paxton at 4 1/2 years old- weight 37 lbs 11 ozs (49%) and height- 41 1/2 inches (56%)
