First off, I really like our pediatrician! Makenna was fussing about going this morning because she was remembering the broken leg nurse and I told her that he is the nicest guy and he won't be mean at all. As I was saying this, I realized that I would not have been able to say that about our last pediatrician and be truly honest. So sad but happy that we are with the one we are now. And I was completely right. Makenna started freaking out and he started joking with her the whole time and made her laugh and before we knew it, he was done. It was great. On a side note, he had a doctor in training working with him and he was so cute it was ridiculous. Oh, and he was very nice too. Usually I don't like it when there are extras in the room but for some reason, I didn't mind;-} Seriously, he looked like some actor on tv or something. Even my mom said the same thing afterwards. It was too funny. I would definitely go to him if he is a general practice doctor. I need one of those anyway;) Well, where was I??? Oh yes, their check ups;-) They are both super healthy with no problems. Jordyn is 25 pounds 6 ounces and 31 1/2 inches and is in the 70 percentile. Her head was in the 90th percentile.....her head has been big since she was in utero;) Makenna was 39 pounds and 42 1/2 inches long and is in the 80 percentile. She is tall but the cute doc said she was proportionate to her weight. I was worried about that because I think she is getting too skinny so that was good to hear. Jordyn pretty much screamed the whole time and she is super strong. I always tell Travis that when I'm changing her, trying to give her medicine or whatnot and he just tells me....she's a baby, you are stronger than her!! Well, the doc had to have me help because he couldn't keep her head still!!! She only needed her Hep A shot and I guess Makenna never had her second one either so she got a poke too even though we kept telling her only Jordyn had to have one. She still was good though and I hope she won't be so scared the next time. Or at least act like she's scared;) I also realized that we haven't had to make a sick visit since all those times in December. Yay!!! Hopefully, (knock on wood) we stay healthy!
Oh, and yesterday at church, the primary sang 'Follow the Prophet' in Sacrament. It was the first time that Makenna could go up and sing. We told her to go up but she kept looking back like 'what???' She finally made it up there and just had her hands up to her face and then ever so slowly she started to sink down until she was behind the pulpit. The stake president and counselor were there and right behind her and they were just laughing. As soon as it was over, Makenna resurfaces and comes back down. I couldn't stop laughing. Pres. Shields commented on it too. He said she did what we all want to do sometimes and hide behind the pulpit. It was so funny.
