2 year appointment

Andrew had his 2 year appointment on Wednesday. The whole way to the doctor he talked about the school bus and "roary" (daddy's car) which we were following. As soon as we got to the doctor he saw the fish tank and started talking about Nemo and turtles. He talked the whole time we waited for the doctor. The people that check you in were laughing at how cute he is and how much he talks. The doctor was on time, thank goodness, so we were able to get in right away. The nurse weighed him and measured him. He's 28.8 oz, 36 3/4 in, and 47cm head. He is average for weight, tall for his age and still has a small head! The doctor came in and once again Andrew talked the whole time. Even the doctor commented on how much he had to say! I filled out the questionnaire that screens for autism and their development while Nate held Andrew while the doctor checked him out. He did great on all his screening and is right where he needs to be in his development. Nate had to run to an appointment so I was on my own during shot time. I feel so bad for him when he has to get shots. Fortunately Andrew only had to get 2, Dtap and Hib #4. Last time we went in they were out of these shots, so we had to wait to get them at this appointment. I try to do no more than 2 shots per visit. The nurse gave him a little dinosaur finger puppet which distracted him and I gave him his pacifier to soothe him. He did great! He cried for about 5 seconds and then he was fine. Such a trooper! Still can't believe that my baby is 2...these 2 years have flown by!
