Dr. visit.

Ezra had his first dr. appointment yesterday. He was a trooper. He got stuck 4 times. 2 for blood draws which he stayed perfectly still for and watched the technician. A TB test and a vaccination. It wasn't until the last one that he finally started to cry. I felt so bad for him! He weighs 27 1/2 pounds and is 34 3/4 inches tall. 12th percentile for weight and 3rd percentile for height. Our social worker was out today for our first post-placement visit and she said there are parents who are upset by these percentiles. We were so excited since Ian has never been on the chart for weight and just recently at age 10 made the chart for height!

That's hilarious. I'm glad Ian is finally on the charts. We're used to little, little guys in our family, so no sweat.

What a cool customer at the doctor's office.
