Sam's 2-Year Checkup

Sam and I had some cheerios for breakfast this morning before it was time to head out and visit with Dr. Sherwood for his 2-year checkup.

She has these cute little chairs that are just his size in each of her exam rooms and he loves sitting on them. But it wasn't long before she walked in and he hopped right up and ran over to sit by me. It usually takes him a few minutes to warm up to her each time we go and it took even longer today because she had a pediatric resident with her.

He weighed 30.8 lbs (80th percentile) and was 37 inches tall (97th percentile). She checked him from head to toe and was very pleased with his development and growth. He is definitely going to be a big boy just like his daddy. After Dr. Sherwood finished with him, one of the nurses came by to draw blood for the first time since he was a newborn. He wasn't too fond of that but it was over before we knew it and we were free to go. After this visit we will only go back once a year for a checkup - so hard to believe! Sam was such a good boy during our appointment and I was so thankful to hear that my sweet boy is healthy.
