Well check

Today Javan has his well check visit.  In the car on the way there Javan said "I am the bravest in the world."  I asked why and he explained  that he's not afraid of "spiders, snakes, thunderstorms...." and he mentioned a few other things that I can't quite remember... 

Anyway, healthy as a horse :-) 37.8 lbs 42.4 inches 57% for weight and 82%  for height.  The md told me that next year he has to get 4 shots before kindergarten so if I wanted to break them up and give him some this year, I can.  I said... "No, I'd rather wait until he is a little older" she was fine with that and left the room to get something.  While she was gone, Javan said .... "Am I going to get a shot today?" I told him "no, not until next year... unless you want to". Jav:  "I'm brave, mommy"  Me: "Ok, so you want a shot?"

And so he did....my brave little one got just ONE shot and did so great! No tears! He didn't like the bandaid though and the first thing he did was take it off in the car.  he said that next year when he gets three shots he is going to take the bandaid off right away too!
