Today I took Cooper to his three year well child visit and I was so proud of my little man! I had no idea what to expect from this appointment besides the normal things they have done in the past. This appointment was different. They took his blood pressure and did a vision test before the doctor came in. We have worked on matching items at home a little bit but I was so impressed that he could point out the different letters on the sheet he was holding to the one the nurse pointed to on the wall. Then when his doctor came in she asked him questions that she hadn't asked before. Here are some examples of the questions she asked and his responses:
D: What do you do when you are cold?
C: Put on a jacket
D: What do you do when you are tired?
C: I have a big bear in my room (okay this wasn't answered correctly but it was sure cute!)
D: What do you use a pen for:
C: drawing
D: What do you use a cup for:
C: Chocolate Milk
Then it was time for the physical exam and he climbed up on to the exam table and listened to her and did exactly what she wanted, I was so proud!
On a more negative note we did talk about his potential asthma issues again and thankfully she is a reluctant as I am to call it asthma. Cooper has had a cough and runny nose since his birthday party so we discussed that and she did hear some wheezing in his lungs. We are now on our second round of antibiotics and doing the nebulizer treatments twice a day again. I let Cooper pick the flavor of his medicine and he choose bubble gum. The first time I gave it to him he looked at me and said "Yum this is good!" Now we have to fight or bride him to get him to take it, I hope we don't need the refill.
