Doctor, Doctor Give me the News.



The Wild Thing had his ONE year check up today. After the Dr. told me how smart he was she looked in his ears and diagnosed him with a double ear infection. Now he's a candidate for tubes.
He's in the 10th percentile for weight. (He's the chunky one of the mini's as the preschooler was always in the 5th percentile). He's in the 50th percentile for height and his melon ranks in the 75th percentile. He demonstrated his smarts by clapping when the Dr. asked if he could clap his hands. He says Mama, Dada, waves bye bye, grunts, points, takes about 5-10 steps at a time, grunts, picks on his brother, steals toys, and grunts.
He can drink from a sippy cup and even empty your cup if it's left within his reach. He hasn't found a food he doesn't like. He provides constant entertainment and can tackle on command. He adores his big brother who adores him. He can empty a cabinet faster than you can turn around to see it. Then he grunts. He is THE WILD THING and we wouldn't trade him for the world.
