We landed in SF around 2pm and had just enough time to drop Dada off at home to go to work and make it to the pediatrician’s office for Peanut’s well-baby check-up. We even got there 10 minutes early!
He played in the waiting room with Big Sister until it was his turn.

Big Sister got some pretty good giggles out of him.

The doctor thinks his height is greater than what was measured and had no concerns with his growth. According to the measurements of his height over his life, the percentiles are all over the place, which is not typical. Meanwhile, his weight is pretty steady with a general trend down. She attributes it to how active and mobile he has become.
At the end of the visit, Peanut got three shots in the legs and Janie got her flu shot in the arm. She looked like she wanted to cry but held it together like a champ. Mama was so proud of her.
