K.Lo visited the Company Doctor today for her 3-year check-up and learned that she is in fact growing and smart, just as we suspected. She measured in at:
37 1/2 inches tall (50th percentile)
33 lbs (75th percentile)
Her BMI dropped from 85th percentile last year down to 65th, which put her well within the “normal and healthy” range. As opposed to the “cutely pudgy” range? Yes, BMI, they measure the BMI for 2 and 3-year-olds.
Moving on…
She was also able to identify the teeny-tiniest of figures on the eye chart, and was just as sweet and compliant as could be with the nurses and doctor. Her favorite part of the visit remains the sticker, and she usually charms her way into two, one from the doctor and one from the nurse at the front desk. Today’s choices were Sleeping Beauty and Barbie.
Meanwhile, I snuck in an exam for N.Lo as well, because he cannot shake this cold, or series of colds, has been under the weather for over a month. The doctor narrowed his symptoms down to a sinus infection, and prescribed the same antibiotics as he did for K.Lo’s ear infection, same dosage and everything, because well, N.Lo weighs 27 lbs. And I have the biceps to prove it! Hopefully, the antibiotics will work, and we can move on toward becoming a fully healthy company once again.
Yay for K.Lo. being in tip top shape! (And N.Lo., on the road to recovery!)
