The 4-year wrap-up

We finally made it in for the 4 year check ups this week. I always get asked how big they are, so here are the official numbers for each...

Payton - She is 38 pounds and 39 inches tall. That puts her at 32% for height and 77% for weight.
Parker - He is a whooping 30 pounds and 37 inches tall. That puts him at 11% for weight and 3% for height.

Everything looks good, there are no special concerns at this time. They got their flu shots and we are good to go for now!




In other weekly doctor news....

Parker and I spent Sunday night in the ER. After a day of sounding a little strange, he really started to tank after dinner. We were greeted by a nurse who instantly took us back to a room when we got there. The ER doctor commented on how big Parker has gotten (I don't think I want an ER doc to know us that well) and the nurse aid asked if Parker went to Respite Care (because she remembered him from her clinical time). The official ruling...croup with exacerbated stridor, reactive airway and tracheomalacia. Sigh. After some mega-steroids and a special type of breathing treatment that we can't do at home, and we were allowed to go home. He's been a little weeny the past couple days but is coming around. Hope this isn't an indicator for the rest of the season.



Have a great week!!! As always, there's more exciting stuff coming!!!
