3-year Check-up

Jillian's well-child 3-year check-up was today at SWMC. Mommy, Daddy and Bridget accompanied her. We found out that she now weighs 33 lbs, and stands 38 inches tall. In the examination room, Jillian sat very quietly while the nurse and Dr. Landchild checked her out. They used the otoscope for the ears and nose, and they checked her heartbeat and breathing with the stethoscope (some things Jillian had read about in one of her Dora books). Everything looked good. The doctor even gave Jillian a Curious George book to read and take home with her. Mommy asked about the small wart that Jillian had on the palm of her hand; the doctor said the best cure was duct tape!

The best part of the examination was finding out there were no shots! Unfortunately, the next round is next year. Until then, Jillian should have OK memories of going to the doctor's office.
