Doctor Time! 4 year 3 month check up





Matthew is a bit advanced in skills and we are looking at putting him in Kindergarten in the Fall. One year earlier than planned but we don't want him to get bored and then become leader of a gang or something...just kidding.
He had to see Dr. Sherman this morning for his official 4 year 3 month check up complete with shots and blood tests (Mommy bailed quickly before the walk down the hall to the lab, Daddy is better at that). Matthew is now 33 1/2 lbs. and 39 5/8 inches tall. He is a big boy indeed! Just ask him, he will tell you. He did well on his first ever eye exam and was quite uncooperative during the hearing exam which I am told is normal for a 4 year old boy. Overall Dr. Sherman gave him a glowing report, says he's on target for everything and is excelling at manipulating his parents. Apparently he's a stand up comedian in his spare time.

Chase and Me-Best Buddies!



Matthew spends time with his best buddy whenever possible! They are now ice skating together, when they do well they are rewarded with swedish pancakes afterwards. This past Sunday I took them both to Chuck E Cheese for about 4 hours where they cashed in their tickets for what else..pirate kits! I just love them both.
