4 year old stats

Sorry for the lack of posts.  We have basically been playing baseball, playing basketball, and playing more baseball.  The weather has been GORGEOUS!  80 degrees in March is unheard of, and we are loving it!!


Isaac had his 4 year old check up this week.  He weighs 38 pounds (60th percentile) and is 41 inches (75th percentile).  He's "super smart" and passed his hearing test.  His doc and I discussed his ongoing tantrums and sensitivity.  He really feels that things will get better.  He said with "life altering events," it can sometimes take a year for things to settle down and go back to "normal."  Isaac IS doing much better, but he continues to cry/throw fits several times a day.  His doc also said that it's reassuring that he's not having any issues in school. (His teacher was shocked when I asked her if he had fits there.  He's never once even cried and is the most even tempered child in his class!)  He would be much more concerned if he was having the same behavior at school.  He did say that we could take IZ to a therapist for an eval, but really didn't feel it was necessary at this point.  He also mentioned that it's completely normal for a four year old to act this way, even without going through everything Isaac has.  It's reassuring to hear that maybe we haven't scarred him forever!

Isaac had to get 4 shots...poor guy!  I could have split them up and taken him back for the rest, but his doctor really recommended that he get all of them to help protect Caleb too.  Thanks for taking one four for the team, IZ!  He did cry a little bit, but was soon asking to stop at the "bending machine" (vending machine) on the way out.  Of course he had to pick something out for "Cay-ch" too.  He is such a sweet brother.
