Ashton's 3 Year Old Appointment

Since Ashton just had his third birthday, it means off to the doctor for a check up. I find these appointments really fun because I love to see where Ashton is on the chart. At this appointment he weighed 41.5 pounds and was 41.5 inches tall. Now just looking at him, you can tell that he is big for his age. The doctor came in and said well Ashton is above the 95% for his weight and height. He said basically we look at a four year old boy and expect him to be 40 inches tall and 40 pounds. Ashton was more in both categories meaning he is bigger than the average 4 year old boy. Can anyone guess how big Ashton's going to be when he gets older? I wouldn't be surprised if he is taller than his daddy. Everything else looked great and the doctor even commented on how beautiful Ashton's eyes were. Basically Ashton is a happy and healthy boy. He got one shot, which made him very upset and I had to kiss it at least twenty times because it hurt so bad. The nurse was amazing and it was the fastest shot I had ever seen, but it still hurts even if its quick. He was such a good boy at the doctor, I was very proud.

Right after our appointment we left for California. As we were driving we looked at the mountain directly behind our house and couldn't believe it was covered in snow. I had to take a picture because it was so close to us. It has since melted as the temperatures have been higher this week, but it was getting pretty close to us. We can only hope that it snows this year even for a day just so we can play in it. For now we still have to make the twenty minute drive to the mountain for snow, which is still just fine by me. :)
