Ryan is two and a half year old today. We went to the doctors today and he did well. The doctor said he is knows more then normal 2 1/2 do. He didn't have to have any shots but got the second H1N1 mist, required for his age group. He was behaved except when he wanted me to read a book and the nurse and I wanted him to lay down to be measured. We did finally get him to lay down. I told him I wouldn't read the book until he lied down, it worked. The best part of the doctors visit was Ryan got a orange lollipop and a new book when he left.
Ryan at 30 months is exactly 30 pounds and 35 1/2 inches tall, with a head size of 49 1/2 cm.
