Twas a fine and lazy stay at home day. The children were at the table coloring and doing school in their PJ's. Showers were on the list for the morning after school so why bother getting dressed?? Right? The phone rings.. RING RING!! Yay Mrs T is calling to see how the boys immunizations went! Get your boys shot this morning she jokes! My heart POUNDED!! OH NO!! I've forgotten. What TIME was that again! WHAT TIME IS IT NOW?? Thankfully we had about an hour to get there! A flurry of dressing, packing up (diaper bag and a snack. Lunch will be late!) , hair, and school. Then wake the sleeping Baby J up and out the door we RUN!! Only to be early! Which was fine as I wanted everyone weighed and measured! The boys were both very brave and just said OUCH! when they got their shots. Then Mrs. B the health nurse told the boys it was Mommy's turn. I tried to wiggle out of it but lost! Mrs. B is very persuasive! She gave me 'that look' and I sighed, took my sweater off and bared my arm! So we all 3 got our Tetanus shots! She even asked me about Papa, he had his last year when the air can blew up in his face so we are all caught up now!
After the boys each picked out a sticker.. I didn't get one :( We headed to the other room to weigh and measure everyone. No not everyone.. I did not get weighed or measured :) And if I did it WOULD NOT be posted on my blog! Though I am losing inches quite nicely!!
J is 6 years and 10 months old. His weight is 61 1/4 lbs.(85%) His height is 48 3/4 inches. (75%)
L is 5 years and 6 months old. His weight is 40 1/2 lbs. (25%) His height is 42 1/2 inches. (35%)
E is 4 years old in 2 days :). Her weight is 30 1/4lbs. (25%) Her height is 38 1/2 inches. (25%)
R is 2 years and 7 months old. Her weight is 23 1/2lbs. (2%) Her height is 34 1/4 inches. (15%)
Baby J is 3 months and 14 days old. His weight is 15lbs 15 oz. His height is 24 3/4 inches.
I don't know Baby J's %'s from today as I did not get to bring his chart home. But when he got his shots 26 days ago he was in the 90% in both height and weight! He's grown 10oz in 26 days :)
Of course on the way home we stopped by Papa's work and bragged about our weights and measures and bravery at shots. He was impressed and also expressed shock as 'that was today?' So it's not just me! :)
OK you mom's out there. Leave a comment and let me know where your kids stand!! I'd love to see heights and weights and ages from all you blog readers :)
