We had another follow-up appointment for Cooper and AJ's 4 year well boy visit. The doctor is very happy with the amount of air that Cooper is moving through his lung, so she doesn't want to see us back for another 2-3 weeks. We will have to have labwork done next week, so crossing our fingers that it comes back good because by then he will be completely off of his antibiotics.
AJ had a good but hurtful visit. He told the doctor all about school and Cooper and anything he could think of. I was very impressed with his answers to the developmental questions that they asked him, he was extremely detailed. But unfortunately all good things must come to an end with 5 shots :( Poor thing at this age he totally knows what is coming and was not very happy with the nurse or me. Funny thing as soon as Cooper saw the nurse put the gloves on, he went running behind the door. I guess 13 days of being poked 2 and 3 times a day has him very observant of what the gloves mean.
AJ weighed in at a whopping 34 pounds and is 40 inches tall. As always the doctor gets concerned about his skinny little body and I have to remind the doctor to not judge my childs weight by the way mom looks but by the way Tony used to look! Cooper is still holding steady at 28 pounds, still trying to get him back up to his pre-hospital weight of 30 pounds.

Argh, I had forgotten that we're back to shots again at the 4 year well visit. Seems like forever since Gray has had to get shots. So glad Cooper is doing so much better!
Any time you want to come over and eat bad food to gain weight, call me... Glad to see that you all are on the mend, I will be over later with food!!!!

Glad they both had a good visit, and hope you get good news from Cooper's future tests. My little ladies had shots earlier this week, and they shocked me by sitting still and watching calmly...not a single tear! They did refuse to walk the next day though, and totally milked those sore legs for all they could.
