Two-year Check-up

On Thursday, I picked Beck up from Mrs. Linda's to take him to a 3:30 doctor's appointment. He was excited to see me but was not excited to see Dr. Minsky. He started whimpering as soon as we got out of the car. Luckily, his office is very fast and took us back as soon as we walked in. The first girl asked us a few questions then measured him (38" tall), weighed him (35.4 lbs) and his head is 19 3/4". He cried through everything. Then, Dr. Minsky comes in and he cries more. The doctor told us that Beck looks great (stomach, ears and mouth) and that he's off the charts except he's in the 75-90% category for the size of his head. Dr. Minsky loves Beck and always gives him a kiss and this time he gave Beck 5 stickers.

Then, the dreaded part...Gail Minsky (Dr. Minsky's wife and nurse) comes in with two shots. One is for chicken pox (given in the left arm) and the other is for Hep A (given in the left leg). She said he could possibly develop chicken pox 7-21 days after the shot is given but hopefully that won't happen!
