Default Dr appointments for the kids

All 3 kids had check ups on Friday.



Brent is in the 75% for height. Brooke is 92% and Braedon was 90%.



The Dr said their blood work was excellent and all of them looked really healthy. He showed me the graph of how Brent has grown over the years and he said to expect a major growth spurt soon. I know Brent's feet grew 2 sizes in less than a month recently. Another interesting thing was he said that Brent's tonsils would never give him problems from now on because they are shrinking some and set far back. He said as puberty gets closer the tonsils will shrink even more.



Brent weighed 69.5 lbs, Brooke 60 and Braedon 49.5. Braedon grew 4 inches in one year.

Your kids are so close in size compared to mine! Rachel weighs 2x what Leanna weighs and Leanna only comes up to her shoulder.

Rachel's feet went thru the same thing. Luckily they have slowed down and she's worn the same size for over a year now.

Good news about Brent's tonsils. I didn't know that they shrank as kids aged.

Sounds like a great appointment. How cool about Brent's tonsils. That is definitely a good sign if they are shrinking. I know with repeated infections they can swell and stay swollen. Then they are just like germ magnets.

What strong healthy kiddos you have!

I hear you on the feet growth. Milo's went up 2 sizes this summer. Yikes! We just had to order him new soccer cleats, tennis shoes and a pair of Crocs. At this pace he'll have huge feet just like his Dad. LOL!

Puberty may be great for the tonsils, but everything else...I'm not so sure about. :-)

Stock that freezer Susan. Growth spurts mean trips to the warehouse clubs so I've heard.
