Well Visits

The girls had their annual well visits at the doctor today.  They both had great, pretty uneventful appointments.

Emmy's stats:
Weight 28lb 12oz
Height 3' 1.5"
BMI 14
Vision  test passed
Hearing test passed

Two little concerns for Emmy.  (1) She currently has a fever, so had a strep test which came back negative.  She probably just has a little bug.  (2) We talked about how Emmy likes to eat a lot of treats.  She was really listening to Dr. Bryan and told Daddy tonight, "I can't eat ANY more treaties."  I didn't correct her that Dr. Bryan said treats in moderation, not complete deprivation.

Reese's stats:
Weight 50lb
Height 3' 10.75"
BMI 16
Vision test passed
Hearing test did not pass

A couple little concerns for Reese.  (1) Since she did not pass her hearing test, she needs to come back in late June/early July for a re-test.  Dr. Bryan isn't overly concerned because Reese simply did not hear the lowest tone some of the time; some of the time she did hear it.  Dr. Bryan thinks Reese probably just has a little cold so didn't hear as well.  She decided to have us schedule a retest because this is the same low tone Reese did not pass for her Kindergarten screening when she was 4 years old.  At that time, she passed her retest.  (2) As always, Dr. Bryan and I talked a bit about Reese's "excited face" and her tactile sensory sensitivity.  Dr. Bryan thinks the two are linked and due to the fact that Reese has a little anxiety.  She recommended some relaxation tactics, not so much that she needs them now, but could help her in the future.  So Reese came home and did a yoga DVD, which she really enjoyed.  She especially liked the volcano, warrior, and triangle poses.  I didn't have my phone handy, but she looked pretty cute doing yoga!

This afternoon Emmy still wasn't feeling great, so she took a nap with Leeo.  Sweet kitty slept right on her to keep her warm and cozy.
