Check Up's

Jalen and Tessa both went to meet Dr. McColl last week for their well baby visits. Let me tell you how much fun that was: getting everybody up and ready to leave the house, working our way from the car to the building, waiting in the waiting room, two exams, four shots, and back to the car.... Well it probably wasn't the hardest thing we've done, but it HAS to get easier! Taking trips with these munchkins will wear a Mama out! Luckily, we were the doc's last appts of the day, so they were in no rush, and were very accommodating, even when J heard us discussing potty training and subsequently, had to go potty. Of course! Now let's all go squeeze into the bathroom! No really, it wasn't that bad, Tessa hung out with Ms. Carol, the nurse. So anyway, here are their stats:

J and Tess are both in about the 50% for weight, and 75% for height. Jalen is now 35.5" tall and 28 lbs. Tessa is 24.75" tall and 13 lbs 7 oz. As I said, there were four shots. Jalen had one and it is his last needle until kindergarten shots! (Kindergarten, really?? No, he's not going...I won't let him!) Tess had 3 separate needles; she cried but didn't hold a grudge. Now Jalen acted like we were going to have to amputate his leg. :) He got some Motrin and we watched Mickey when we got home to make it all better!

Tessa's first bite of cereal. I don't think any of it made it past her tongue.
