Three Year Old Check-Up

Yesterday, Sadie had her three year old check-up. She now weighs 33.5 pounds and is 3 feet, 1 inch tall (37 inches). She is still average for her age for both weight and height. If she stays on her growth trajectory, she will probably remain in her carseat until she is close to 5 years old. As part of her check-up, she had a vision screening and a hearing screening and passed both very easily.

Before the doctor came into examine her, we were asked to change her into a little tiny hospital gown. For all previous check-ups, we've just been told to get her naked. I guess she is growing up and they wanted to offer her some privacy. Little Miss Loves to Dress Up was thrilled to try on the purple "dress".

The doctor asked if we thought Sadie was saying at least 50 words. Then she laughed and said she thought she had hear Sadie saying at least 50 words within the past few minutes. Sadie's verbal skills continue to be a strength.

Physical milestones looked fine too. Sadie is now jumping well, running, etc. She was dancing all over the office, standing on one foot, climbing up and down off the examining table by herself and generally being a total show-off for her new doctor.
