Anna's 4 year checkup, Olivier potty training, Mason's elbow

What a busy day! March 2nd was a busy day, but then again, what day isn't busy in our house!

Anna
It was time for her 4 year old checkup! We were excited to find out where she fell on the growth curve. She is 39 1/2 inches tall and 34.2 pounds, the 40% for both! They tested her vision and she was 20/40. Very normal for a 4 year old. Her hearing was at 100%. A very healthy, happy girl! She got one shot but was very brave and didn't cry. After her appointment, we surprised her and took her to get frozen yogurt. Yummy!

Olivier
He is making huge progress with potty training. We haven't been pushing it (and still aren't) but we were thrilled when he went poop in the potty for the first time on the 2nd and today he stayed dry all day expect the two times he pooped in his diaper. All pee was in the potty. Headed in the right direction. With Anna M & M's were her treat, and with Olivier, jelly beans are doing the trick!

Mason
He gave us a bit of a scare. In the evening after we all got home, Mason was rather fussy and we noticed that his right arm was rather limp. No signs of any bumps or bruises and he wasn't crying like he was in pain. He just did not want to use it at all. We debated what to do and decided that he was okay to go to bed since it really didn't seem to be bothering him. We did some research and it looks like he had Nursemaid's elbow. We were prepared to take him in the next morning but low and behold, he was fine in the morning. Whew! Something we will have to watch for in the future.
