I took Colby for his 3 year well visit with Dr. Hudson yesterday. I think it was the easiest and most positive appointment Colby has ever had! It was fabulous!!!
Colby is doing great with his development. The only thing he is still a little behind on is a couple of his gross motor skills...jumping and walking steps. Dr. Hudson reminded me to put the steps into perspective. Colby is tackling steps at the size of an 18 month old. It is obviously going to be harder for him to climb them when the step comes up so high on his leg. It's like a mountain to him!!
His size is obviously still small, but he continues to grow right along his growth curve. He hasn't reached the growth chart yet, but that doesn't concern Dr. Hudson at all. As long as he is growing proportionally, he is fine! His weight actually jumped up a little more than his curve called for. Most kids don't gain much weight between 2 and 3, but Colby gained 4 lbs!!! He is now 23 lbs and 32 1/2 inches tall!!
As Dr. Hudson was examining Colby, he read the shirt Colby was wearing, "Loud and in Charge." My mom gave him this shirt for his birthday. Dr. Hudson said, "well, that pretty much sums him up doesn't it?" Yes, it does!!! He is full of life, personality, love, and he is definitely in charge of every situation!! God is good!!
