Ryla's 3 Year Stats

Ryla 3 year_9, originally uploaded by roman_tiffany.

Ryla had her 3 year checkup today. She lucked out at this appointment and was able to avoid shots. She did get her blood pressure taken for the first time and she did great! She kept saying "just like mommy does" and held very still for the doctor. Her blood pressure was 74/44 which the doctor said was perfectly normal for her age. Ryla measured 38 inches tall (75th percentile) and weighed 32 lbs (60th percentile).

The doctor also checked different "skills" that she should have by this age. He had her point out different colors, jump, draw straight lines (vertical and horizontal), draw circles and undress herself. He also had her tell him a story so he could check her verbal skills. She passed every test with flying colors. He also said that she is one of the healthiest patients he has since he has only seen her twice outside of her well exams.

She ended the appointment with a lollipop and a sticker which made her very happy. Now that we are back home she keeps wanting to take my blood pressure with her play doctor kit. So cute!
