sports physicals......check

Today I took the kids to the pediatrician for their sports physicals so that they can start soccer practice soon. Thankfully our wonderful pediatrician stayed late to take care of both of them in one visit. WE LOVE HER!!!! When I called to schedule them the appointment line lady was INSISTENT that they could not do them at the same time and she scheduled them 3 DAYS APART!!! It seemed absurd to me that I was gonna have to make two separate trips 3 days apart for the exact same check up process when they were both in the room today. So, I asked nicely and because she is so SUPER, she did them both(if you are a military family you know how rare it can be to find someone willing to be accommodating at the base clinic).

Anyway, the physicals went very well. She even took the kids out into the hallway and let them run up and down so she could watch them run. That was their favorite part, of course! She was asking them the standard questions, you know...wearing bike helmets, wearing seat belts, not talking to strangers, brushing teeth, eating fruits and veggies, etc... My dear son informed the doc that he didn't eat any vegetables because his mommy and daddy wouldn't give him any. WHAAAAT? Of course, the doctor knew that was just 4 year old talk.

So, for the record, here are their most current stats:

Ryan is 42.5 inches tall and weighs 38 pounds. That is in the 60th percentile for height and the 55th percentile for weight. Kylee Anne is 38.5 inches tall and weighs 35 pounds. She is the 75th percentile for both height and weight...perfectly proportioned, huh?
