Check up city

I know that we have nightgowns, but night skirts? Evie is modeling her new pajamas from Grandma Bev and Grandpa Wayne

Evie had her 4 year well child check up two weeks ago and her first dental appointment yesterday. You would all be so proud of her! She had 5 shots and barely shed a tear! Such a big girl! The doctor was impressed with how well she did. Her stats are pretty impressive too: 44 lbs and 42 1/2 inches tall. That puts her in the 90% and 95% for weight and height. As the doctor said, she is a 'solid' girl. The doctor encouraged us to get her into the dentist, which is something that we have meaning to do for a while. We would like to be a good first experience instead of waiting until she has a cavity or a tooth is knocked out. I was able to get her an appointment yesterday and I will say it was a good experience. She got to watch a movie and they gave her a bag full of tooth-happy treats. She sat still for the x-rays and the cleaning (though each time the hygienist paused in the cleaning, Evie asked if she was done yet). Her teeth look great and she is very proud of them now. I am still having trouble coming to grips with the fact that I have a preschooler. Sometimes she acts like she is 2, other times like she is 14. We are all trying to figure this growing-up thing out!
