Check-ups

Today was Mason and Cooper's six month check-ups at the Dentist and their yearly check-ups with the Doctor. I accidentally scheduled their Dentist and Doctor appointments on the same day. We had an early start to our day with the Dentist appointments first at 7:30am. Mason did great, he let the hygienist polish his teeth and put fluoride on them then he let the Dentist look at them. Cooper let the Dentist look at his teeth, but wouldn't let the hygienist do much. I think the hygienist gave up too easy though, she put the fluoride up to his mouth and when he didn't open right away, she stopped trying. Maybe I should have been the one to try to get Cooper to open up his mouth, and maybe I would have if the hygienist didn't give up after the first try. Oh well. Neither of the boys had any cavities!

Then it was off the the Doctors for Mason's 4 year check-up and Cooper's 2 year check-up. Mason was really excited to go to the Doctors, which he hasn't been for a little over a year, when our Doctor moved out of Spokane. Well our Doctor moved back to Spokane about two months ago. Mason saw him at church and was really excited when I told him that he moved back and would be our Doctor again. When the MA came out to get the boys, Mason wasn't too happy that it wasn't Dr. Osmun coming to get him. So Mason wouldn't talk to the MA and as soon as she left the exam room Mason said, "but I thought I was going to get to see Dr. Osmun!" Whoa! Hang on there little fella, you will, just wait. Once Dr. Osmun came in the room, Mason started talking, asking questions, telling Dr. Osmun funny stuff like, "wouldn't it be funny if there was two Dr. Osmuns?" I was starting to think Mason had a crush on Dr. Osmun and that I would never get him out of the office, until the MA came back in with four shots for Mason and one for Cooper. Mason cried ten times worse than Cooper and he pouted all the way home.

Mason's stats: 3'7" tall (43"), 41 lbs.

Cooper's stats: 2' 10 1/2 " tall (34.5"), 31 lbs.

A piece of useful (or useless) info for you:

They say that if you double a two year old height, that is how tall they will be as an adult.

If that is true, Cooper should grow to be 5' 9" tall.

At two years old Mason was 36.5" tall, so he should grow to be 6' 1" tall.
