Tyler's 4 Year Well Visit

Tyler had his "4 year well visit" with Dr. Rohatgi today. He was a picture of health and weighed 36 pounds and was 41.5" tall....50th percentile as usual! He might be average in height and weight, but he is far from being an average 4 year old! For example, today he told me that we need to "communicate more effectively." I can't wait to hear what he tells his preschool teacher this year!

Tyler also completed a vision and hearing test at his visit. He aced them both but a couple of things cracked me up. First, the vision test is just pictures of objects for him to identify...there was a heart, square, circle, etc. One shape was a moon....however, Tyler referred to it as a "crescent." I know this is correct, but he's 4......the nurse said she didn't believe she'd ever had another child refer to it as a crescent! We all know the routine for a hearing test...raise your hand when you hear the beep. Tyler, on the other hand, just mocked the beep each time instead of raising his hand even trying to imitate the pitch of the beep. Dr. Rohatgi thought this was hilarious! He always makes it fun, that's for sure!
