I took Avery to see Dr. Shidler yesterday for her 3 year well visit, and ALL IS WELL! My only concerns with her are the red, scaly, dry patches behind both of her knees. Avery complains that they itch. I'm sure it is dry skin or eczema. We were instructed to use Hydrocortisone Cream, and so I bought some today and we'll start using it tonight. My only other concern was with Avery's eating habits. She is much smaller than Lily which doesn't surprise me because the kid doesn't eat. She doesn't eat meat and you might as well forget vegetables! Lily was the same way though, so I do have faith that things will change with time. Dr. Shidler assured me that this was all very normal for a 3 year old. She is growing and that is all that matters. We did start giving her a Pediasure a day, and thankfully she likes those!
I forgot that they don't get any shots at 3 years. I had prepared her for them, and she even asked where her shot was?! Both Lily and Avery got the Flu Mist. Now, all BUT Daddy have been vaccinated...get on that Daddy!
Avery's 3 Year Stats:
* Height~ 38 1/4 inches (78th percentile)
* Weight~ 32.8 pounds (70th percentile)
* Blood Pressure 90/50
* Heart Rate 92 beats per minute
Lily weighed in at a whopping 52.4 pounds...no wonder I can't pick her up anymore! I didn't measure her height...all I know is that she is TALL...much bigger than her little sister.
