Well Baby

Luke talking on the phone with Solomon. Solomon called to sing him Happy Birthday while we (and by "we" I mean Kyle) were carving our Jack-O-Lantern

We went to the doctor today for Luke's two year well baby check up. He's well =). He now weighs 24lbs and is 32" tall. Those measurements put him in the 10th percentile, which is up from the 3rd percentile at his 18th month well baby, so he has had a Luke sized growth spurt anyway. There is no real solid indicator of adult heigh, but they do say that the best guess is the height at 2 doubled. According to that his estimated adult height is 5'4". We need to pray for him. He had to get three shots which he wasn't to in to but he did pretty good with them. His next well baby appointment is at 3 years.

This evening we went to the furniture store and bought him a twin sized bed. It will be delivered on Wednesday so we'll be starting that transition. Hopefully it goes well and he stays in his bed like he's supposed to. We ended up getting a dark stain twin with an option. There is a full drawer beneath the bed that you can put another mattress in for a trundle effect, or you can insert some slats and have drawer space. We didn't buy the second mattress tonight, but decided to wait until he was closer to an age where a friend or a cousin =) might be able to spend the night in it. We'll use it for toy storage in the meantime. I will have to go tomorrow and buy sheets and a safety rail.

Leta and I have our next appointment tomorrow so I imagine you'll be getting another blog post from me shortly.
