I took Stephanie to the eye doctor today. She has a slight astigmatism but 20/20 vision so the doctor said she didn't need glasses this year.
Then we took Meredith to her guitar lesson and I took the little kids to Earl May while we waited for her. Mainly for the free popcorn although we did look around for awhile. While we sat in the car eating popcorn, Stephanie bit her own finger. This kid is so accident-prone, it drives me insane. I keep telling her to slow down and pay more attention but not a day goes by where she doesn't hurt herself somehow.
Which reminds me ~ I need to re-thank Annette for sending us those 'ice bears' all those years ago. I probably need to go get some more.

4-year-old check-up
We went to the doctor today for Steffi's 4-year-old well-child check-up.
She is right at the 100 percentile for both height and weight so she is proportional. Which is good to know - I was kind of worried since she weighs as much as her big sister and is at least 6 inches shorter. And she's always been the heftiest of the kids. But the doctor said no worries and he's sure she'll hit her growth spurt soon too.
Anyway, she weighs 48 pounds and is 42.5 inches tall.
As a comparison, Hayden was 41 pounds and 43 inches tall at 4 years old.

A Doctor's Visit
Stephanie was complaining that her ear hurt Tuesday morning and Hayden had been coughing for a week so I took them to the dr that afternoon.
We got into the exam room and the nurse took the information of their various ailments and was just leaving when Steffi piped up, "No shots today!"
The nurse assured her there would be no shots today.
The doctor came in and talked to her for a second. "No shots today!"
No - no shots today.
He had her get up on the table and listened to her chest. "No shots today!"
He put the stethoscope on her back. "No shots today!"
He looked in her ears. "No shots today!"
He let her get down so he could examine Hayden. "No shots today!!"
He got ready to leave the room to get a prescription for Hayden. "I wanna sticker!"
