Last night we took Gabs in for her 3 year check up as well as Jackson's one year. I honestly still can't believe my little girl is 3! It has all gone by too fast but especially this last year seems to have flown by. I still think of her as my little 2 year old and it's only when she says something extra funny or dramatic (serious drama queen) that I remember she isn't a baby anymore and she has a lot of spunk!
Jackson's check up went great. He's not a big boy - about 21.5lbs and only about 30th percentile but he seems to have had a bit of a growth spurt and hit 60th in his height. This is great news considering Gabs always hovered around 10th for height!
Gabs was fiesty and really made our pediatrician work to get what she needed. She of course did height, weight, temperature and blood pressure like a pro but it took some bribing and teasing to get her belly checked. It does appear that she has some slight scoliosis in her spine. We are getting a referral to Ortho to get a 2nd opinion and decide if it's anything that needs to be treated. Her spinal surgery (laminectomy) put her at a higher risk for scoliosis so it's just something we need to keep an eye on. Please pray that we find it is so mild that nothing needs to be done.
Our next step right now is to w for our May MRI to be scheduled. Thank you as always for your constant notes, prayers and support. They lift us when we are feeling doubtful and remind that us that we are not going through this alone.
