Abby's 4-Year Check-Up

Okay, so things have been insane at the Ng house lately, some good, some bad, and some very bad. But, we're muddling our way through and we're doing fine.

On Monday, Miss Abigail had her 4-year check-up. After so many visits to the pediatrician's office for Zachary, I think Abby was happy to have the focus on herself for a bit, until the time came for shots. Then, uh, not so much...

The doctor didn't tell me anything that I didn't know already. Namely, Abby is tall (42 inches - 90th percentile), healthy (37 pounds - 75th percentile), and amazing.

She pointed out her colors, recited her alphabet, counted until I had to ask her to stop, and was able to jump and balance on one foot and do all sorts of fun things for Dr. Caravella.

Her vision tested at 20-30, which is apparently normal for this age, and the nurse mentioned that she'd never had a 4-year old child answer the test questions so quickly!

All in all, the doctor couldn't tell me anything that I didn't know already: my not-so-little girl is healthy and smart and adorable and amazing. Thanks, doc. I knew that already, but it's great to have independent confirmation.
