He's TWO!

Patrick turns two today.  He's learning new things each day and I'm always amazed at the new words he says and how he can express what he wants.  I still have trouble every once in a while understanding what he is asking for.  Last night he keep saying "Toe".  Finally figured out he wanted me to cover him up from head to toe.  Done this many times but this was the first time he asked for it.

Not much going on in way of celebration today.  He is having a party of Saturday so today just a treat and one present to open form the twins I watch.  They can't make it to the party so we are celebrating with them today.  He also had a doctor appointment this morning, right away at 8:30.

Patrick did not want to be examined today at the doctors.  He did great stepping on the scale and standing still while he was being weighted (29 Lbs) but that was the end of his cooperation.  He didn't want to be measured for his height.  He's still just a little to short of the wall scale so I had to lay him down on the small roll up one.  He wouldn't lay still and kept moving his head from the top so we got a best guess of his height (35.5 inches).  Threw a fit when the Dr and nurse tried to hear is heart and lungs.  Cried and said the thermometer under is arm hurt.  He did like when the doctor used the light to look at his eyes but not his ears.  He ended up getting the flu shot and some blood draw to check his lead levels since our house is over 50 years old.  Poor kid, rough way to start your birthday.

The rest of the day went very well.  We celebrated with the daycare girls since they can't come to his party.  Patrick even got a hair cut.  Over all, I'd say it was a good day for Patrick.  Let the Trying Two's begin.
