2 Year Check Up

At Corbin’s two year check up we learned a few things.

1) He is 34.8 inches long (58% percentile) and he weighs a whopping 25.8 lbs (37% percentile).  Then we get to his head circumference - 19.8 inches (93% percentile) - so he really sprang up in the percentile bracket there.  As I’m typing out these numbers and percentiles it would almost seem Corbin is designed much like a bobble head doll…poor guy.  At least he doesn’t look like one…I don’t think;)

2) Corbin is blessed beyond belief with two parents who suffer terribly with seasonal allergies.  At this stage of life he’s already struggling with them himself.  The doctor said that he has an “allergy” nose…what!?!  She went into specific terminology and a description but I really can’t recall what that all was and I just retained the allergy nose part.  So, he’s starting on children’s Zyrtec soon (as needed).

3) Finally, because of all the drainage from the allergies he has an ear infection.  So the kiddo is on antibiotics.  Unfortunately, because he had an elevated temperature due to the infection (and if we had not had this appointment already scheduled I was going to take him anyway because I could tell he wasn’t feeling well) his 2-year shots were delayed.  But don’t worry, we’ll be back in two weeks to have shots and then check up on how the allergy meds are working.  Corbin is super excited about that;)

Ahh, sweet boy, that’s you, so far, at two in a nutshell:)
