There should be a rule in life : no flat tires on Fridays.
The day started off unremarkable, which is remarkable these days... We thought we were just going to have a fun day of school shopping with Mimi and Chief, but the menacing aforementioned tire trouble had to rear it's ugly head again. Turns out that a rear tire had a nail in it! Apparently the damage couldn't be repaired and it required a new tire.. And apparently you need to replace tires in pairs... Just a little extra cost to twist the knife a little more. ;)
So.. Despite me complaining in jest, I'm actually just beyond thankful that nothing happened to us while driving in NC or on our drive home.
We ended up doing some shopping, having lunch and going to the kid's well check at the pediatricians office.
Joshua is in the 50th percentile for height and 20th for weight. He seemed to be in around an overall percentile of about 30th. So, a beast compared to Lil... but not giant in the real world. She did detect a small heart murmur, but we are just going to keep an eye on it and she doesn't think it is anything major at the moment. Overall she was really impressed with his sweet disposition and how well he mimicked her. She said that she thinks he will be the type of kid that may talk later, but starts off and then you can't stop him... So with him about to take steps and judging by his older sister... I think both his legs and mouth should be running very soon. Ha!
Lil is doing great as well. She is in the 3rd percentile!! She is on the charts, people!! The doctor commented that her focus and articulation were impressive, which I think we already knew. She had a great visit... The doctor let her listen to her own heart and to Joshua's heart.. And she managed her anxiety really well. She discovered that telling the doctors and nurses how she felt about things made her feel better... So that was super cute to watch.
Here is to a great week before the grind begins again!!
