2 Year Well Check

The boys had a visit with Dr. Fullmer today!  Tyke had his 2 year well check and did pretty good.  He has thrown fits for the doctors since he was about nine months old.  Today he only freaked out a little before calming down and taking Dr. Fullmer's otoscope to play with.  Dr. Fullmer is such a great doctor!  He's so patient with our little guys and does an awesome job taking care of them!

We had a big questionnaire to fill out about Tyke, listing what he can and can't do developmentally.  He is right on track and a little more so than most two year olds!  He was shy around Dr. Fullmer at first but then turned into a bit of a show off!  We had Dr. Fullmer check a mole on Tyke's back that we were concerned about and it checked out perfectly.  We also discussed Tyke's bad eating habits with Dr. Fullmer.  We feel like such loser parents only feeding Tyke his main food groups: pizza, grilled cheese sandwiches, mac and cheese and corn dogs.  The doctor informed us we are doing just fine and that Tyke is on a typical toddler diet and it's very normal.  He told us to still offer other foods to Tyke so that he has options but that as long as he's eating something that's all that matters.  It was a relief to hear that!

Tyke's 2 year stats:

Weight: 30 pounds (76%)

Height: 37.6 inches (99%)

Head: 19.9 (??%)

Tyke checked out great and was done quickly with his appointment.  While he waited for Luke's turn to be over with he got pretty restless and it stressed me out big time.  As soon as Dr. Fullmer was done checking Luke out and left the room we decided it would be a little less chaotic if Chad and Tyke left as well while I waited with Luke to get his shots.  Tyke doesn't do well in small rooms, he has too much energy!  He got to run the halls and play with the drinking fountains while Luke and I stayed behind for shots.  After we finished up Tyke rode home with Daddy and they stopped for an ice cream cone because he had been so good!

Our little guy isn't so little anymore.  We're glad to see that he's growing perfectly in every way.  We are so proud of Tyke and all that he does!  He's no longer a baby or a toddler but a big boy in our eyes.  He'll always be my baby no matter what but he is definitely looking more and acting more like a little boy and it's bittersweet!  We love you Roni-man!
