3 year checkup!

September 17, 2013

Maxwell went to see Dr. Walley yesterday and everything looks great!  He’s 38 inches tall (75-95th%) and 30.4 lbs (75th%).  He’s grown 4 inches since last year!  Here are his stats for his 2 year visit.  He’s definitely gone up in the weight percentile.  Luckily there were not shots, just the easy flu mist.  Phew.  Maxwell did SO great and was just chatting up Dr. Walley and making him laugh.  We talked a lot about eating healthy fruits and vegetables so he’ll grow big and strong and then Maxwell chimed in “guacamole makes you big and strong!”  ha!  Can you tell what we had for dinner the night before??  🙂

He really wasn’t wanting to go that morning but I convinced him that Dr. Walley is awesome (which he is!) and that the visit would be fun and he finally came around.  I think telling him we could take the ipad and that he could sit on my lap made a big difference too!

Waiting our turn…

Is it a requirement for every doctor office to have a toy like that?

We love Dr. Walley!

Weekend!

September 16, 2013

We love the weekend!  Saturday both boys ended up getting new AL hats and cheered the Tide on to a victory!

We made it to early church so we could get early naps because Sunday afternoon was SOCCER!  The best thing I can say about our first soccer game is that it’s over!  🙂  My little soccer stud was super excited at first…

but then…well, they say there’s no crying in baseball but apparently there is crying in soccer. Full story and pics to come…

Although, he did get to see Lila so the day wasn’t a total loss!  🙂

Check up!

September 12, 2013

One of Maxwell’s other favorite gifts from his birthday was his doctor kit.  After playing fireman outside for a long time the day of his party, he decided to cool off by coming inside and giving everyone a checkup!

He would listen to our heart (or belly!), check blood pressure, look in our ears/nose/eyes, give a shot and then fix us up with a bandaid!  Luckily everyone checked out as healthy!

I leave you with this little diddy from Doc McStuffins…one of Maxwell’s faves!

Time for your checkup! Time for your checkup!
I’m gonna check your ears, check your eyes, find out how much you’ve grown.
Time for your checkup!
I’m gonna listen to your heart beat,fix you up, ready to go.
Time for your checkup!
It’s ok if you giggle. This will only tickle a little.
Time for your checkup! Time for your checkup!

Practice makes perfect

September 11, 2013

As I mentioned yesterday, we went over to the elementary school field for a little soccer practice Sunday afternoon.  I knew it was going to start well when I had to wake Maxwell up from from his nap at 5:00…

Don’t they both look excited?!

Both boys also loved watching Dad show off a time or two!

Luckily there were not shots to the head (or bottom!) in this game!

The first official practice/game is this weekend.  We’re ready…I think!  🙂
