4 year checkup...

Sydney went for her 4 year checkup today. She weighed in at 38.4 lbs and is 41 3/4" tall. She's grown just over 3 1/2 inches and gained 5 lbs in a year!! She also did a hearing and eye test...her vision is 20/30. I'm glad someone in this family can see!

She also got 2 shots...she did really good and was excited that one of her bandaids had Snoopy on it! Carter was with us and watched Sydney get her shots...I think he was just happy it wasn't him for a change!!

After the nurse left Sydney said, "That thing was sharp! But I didn't cry...I'm not a baaaaaby!!" That made me laugh!

After the dr. visit we went to Chick-fil-a for lunch...big surprise there! After we ate, they got to run around in the play area. Today was the first time Carter actually climbed up to the top by himself. Usually I have to squeeze in there and shove his butt up each step but he was able to swing his leg up today and pull himself up (thank goodness!!) They had a blast!

To end our adventure for the day, I measured their feet, just out of curiosity. I was pretty sure Sydney was between a 10 and 10 1/2 and thought Carter was about 7 1/2 or 8. Sure enough, Sydney was a 10 1/2. Carter is a whopping 8 1/2!! Geez, Sydney wore that size last year when she was 3! He's worn his Crocs all summer though so I had no idea his foot had grown a size and a half since last winter! It's a good thing though cause I have a few pair of size 9 shoes he can wear this fall =)
