Two Year Well Child (yes, it is now called child, not baby) Check Up

How sad, it's official that he's no longer a baby. :( 

Today we had Owen's 2 year check up and it went very well.  I wasn't surprised, since we just had his NICU appointment, but it's still good to hear!  His stats were a little different than they were the other day: Height 36.5" (92nd %ile), weight 27lbs, 6oz (45th %ile), and Head 19.5" (75th %ile).  He lost a little bit of weight with this icky flu bug.  He was 28lbs, 4oz two weeks ago. He's feeling better though I think and he's starting to eat more, so hopefully we are kicking it!

Dr. Strong told us that we can switch him to 1% or skim milk now, so that is exciting -  no more buying t\wo different kinds!  She asked about potty training and was very excited that he's using it about two times a day and that he sometimes asks to use it on his own.

He was a chatty Patty, so she got to hear all about a bus, a ball, Muno's Lala and Papa's watch!  He was infatuated with her tools, and she let him play with her light.  He was pretty giddy!

Another great appointment that didn't include shots.  YEAHHH!!!  He doesn't have to go back now until he is 3 years old.  And his next NICU follow up is at 4 and a half years, so let's cross our fingers that we aren't at the doctor until the next check ups!!!
