Tomorrow, It Gets Better

The past couple weeks I've kind of been in a funk. 

My sporadic running and tingly feet (not to mention misfit shenanigans) has had me in a foul mood.

With Buttin's help, I'm making a plan to get over myself and adapt to my new situation (the tingly feet).  

• On Tuesday - I'm going to see a chiropractor.  I've never seen on in my ENTIRE life, but since I have to wait three weeks to see a neurologist, I figured I might try something while I wait.
• I'm also going to try to walk or do some other kind of working out (maybe even join a gym) everyday of the week (I think chasing Cub must count for at least two weekly workouts).
• In about three weeks I'm going to see a neurologist, who will probably tell me that I'm crazy, but at least we can start identifying the tingly feet issue (unless the chiropractor is able to work some magic).  
•  If all else fails, I will eat massive amounts of cookie dough  and flick spit balls at misfits.

Here's a picture of our little mouth-breather sleeping.   We heard from Dr. Boston and Cub's adenoids are very large so he has an appointment with an ENT in a few weeks.  

X-Ray Day

Yesterday was Cub's two year check-up.  

He's right on track - 60th percentile for height and 40th percentile for weight.

We discussed Cub's World Record Breaking amount of snot production and Dr. Boston decided we should get an xray of Cub's adenoids.    

Today Cub and I went to get his xray done.

Cub was ready to go home immediately.

This is what a toddler looks like throwing a fit by the water fountain in a doctor's office.

Here's Cub telling me where he wants to go while we wait.

The xray was somewhat traumatic because Cub had to be forcefully held still and he was not happy (for the record, neither was I), but thankfully it was over soon.

We should find out about Cub early next week. 

15-Month Appointment

Misfit Monday is being preempted by Cub's 15-month check-up.

Here are the numbers (as much as I can remember them, I left the sheet out in my car and I'm too lazy to go get it):

Height: 29.5 inches - 30%

Weight: 22 lbs - 20%

Head: Lots of inches - 70%

We have a slender boy with a big noggin.

Little Cub was not happy to be at Dr. Boston's office (I think he remembers the shots from last time).  As soon as we put him on the paper table (just to get measured), he started crying (a very full "save me, save me" kind of cry).

It got worse.

He got two shots (one in the arm and one in the leg - I wasn't really happy about it, but I think Buttin got a little tired of me asking, "why?" he had to get shots in TWO different locations) and got his toe stuck to check his iron levels (they were fine).

Dr. Boston said that Cub is probably drinking a little too much milk and we should give him water instead of milk so that he has more of an appetite for solid foods. 

Dr. Boston said he was just perfect and in great health and developmentally right on track.  

Here is our perfect little Cub playing outside this afternoon after his doctor's appointment.
