Check Up

I'm a bad Mom busy Mom. I don't take my boys to the doctor every year. It's usually when they are sick, when it's flu shot time, or every other year.

I had a list going of things I wanted to ask their doctor, it's flu shot time, Mica had a few vaccines (whooping cough and meningitis) to get, they are were off of school on Monday, so we got the boys in for a check up.

I'm big on vaccinations because Isaak had Meningitis when he was 2 months old, and my Mom had Polio. I've seen how scary some of those things are. We've all had the actual flu. I like to do anything to prevent us from getting whatever crap germs are out there.

They look huge on the table now!


Isaak looks freaked out in the picture because he knew he was about to get a shot. Neither boy cried, but Isaak was certainly wigging out about the 1 shot he got. Mica handled it like a champ. 

My Dad is super tall, both my Mom and Mother-in-law are taller than I am. I'm always curious where the boys stand with weight and height. 

Mica:

He's 61.3" which is 95% in his age group.

He's 93 lb 15 oz, which is 78% in his age group.

Isaak:

He's 55.2" which is 96% in his age group.

He's 65 lb 11 oz, which is 75% in his age group.

They won't go to the doctor again until they are sick, or for their next flu shot.

Ever since Lil Pumpkin finished her compulsory shots and checked all her developmental milestones we don't bring her into the doc unless necessary too. Her school does an annual health / developmental check-up on them.

Mariah had to go in on Monday for her Hepatitis A and Meningitis shots. I had to go in because we found out I am not immune to Hepatitis B on a recent doctor visit. I am usually good with shots, but that one really hurt my arm for a few days afterwards!

I still don't understand the "well visits" besides them getting more money. They look so tall in their photo!
