Big Kiddos

Today the kids had well visits w/ the pediatrician. We got there at 10:03 and were not leaving the office until 12:30...It always takes forever there. At least they are nice. And it's free. Anyways, here's the skinny:

Jedidiah Brooks Caperton: (at 2 years & 4 days old)
  • 34 1/5 lbs - 100th%
  • 36 3/4 in - 95th%
  • Got the flu shot and a finger prick to check for lead poisoning. He did great with the shot - didn't even cry...but screamed bloody murder as she milked his finger for enough blood to do the lead test with.
  • Has an ear infection & has to take amoxacillin. I thought the whining & crankiness was just the 3 molars coming in...I was wrong!
  • Oh yeah, can't leave out that he pushed a little sick girl in the waiting room.
Riley Ember Caperton: (at 7 mo. tomorrow)
  • 19 lbs 10 oz - 95th%
  • 29 1/4 in - well over the 100th%
  • Got 3 regular vaccinations and a flu shot. She cried immediately after the first shot.
  • We got some free formula from the pediatrician. Hooray for samples! Although, we have an apt. to see if we can get WIC tomorrow. I'm not too proud to take free stuff! Especially when that free stuff (formula) costs anywhere from $15-$30 a can.
  • Riley REALLY does finally have her first tooth coming in. I can actually see it breaking thru the skin.

To see that Riley is only 7 1/2 inches shorter than Jed is pretty amazing.
