It's only 9:30 and we've already had a busy morning. Sometimes I'm not even out of bed this early. But today I had my two-year doctor visit before William even went to school. I put on my own shoes while Mommy helped William with his. I packed my Elmo backpack with my baby while Mommy put William's homework in his. Then Mommy helped me with my coat and hat while William put on his. We were all ready to go.
We got to my doctor's office in plenty of time. I was a model patient. I laid very still for weighing and measuring. I was 31 1/2 inches (4%) and 22 1/4 lbs (3%). I let the doctor check me all out. She's very nice. She thought it was time to find another doctor to check out the bump on my wrist since it seems to be growing with me rather than getting smaller. So I'll have another doctor appointment sometime, but it's no hurry. The bump doesn't hurt and it's not in the way. We'll just get a more expert opinion about if and when it should come out. Other than that, and William crying because Mommy took his toy motorcycle when he wouldn't stay in his chair, it was an uneventful visit. My ears are clear and I'm all done with shots until I'm five!
But I did have to go to the lab for a blood draw. First we took William to school. He was a little late, so he had to check in at the office first. We watched him go in, stop in the office, and then head right to his class. My brother can be so grown up and responsible sometimes! Mommy says I should tell him what a big girl I was at the lab. I got a little owie and the lady squeezed some drops of blood out of my finger. I just watched intently the whole time. I was so engrossed in the process I even drooled a little. The drool was kind of funny and made me smile :) I was so brave that the lady dug through the stickers to find the sparkliest Elmo sticker she could give me.
She created a little reading nook for herself
As soon as we got home, I asked Mommy for Dora. I love watching Dora and would watch it all the time. I thought Mommy was happy that I liked tv, but now she's always saying "no" and "enough tv." I wish we could play movies on the tv all day long. But Mommy won't. So sometimes I go up to my room and read or I push my babies in their strollers. Right now, though, I think she'll let me watch Dora since I haven't yet today. Off I go!
