Meghan's Check-up

Meghan did great at her doctor's appointment (like she wouldn't!). She was 5 foot 1 and 1/4 inches tall and she was in the 78%tile for weight (she didn't want me to post her weight....and so it begins!). Her height was in the 90-something %tile. So basically tall and skinny. She did have to get a shot (which I didn't anticipate) for meningitis. They recommend it now for middle/high school (not just college) since more cases are popping up. Meghan was NOT excited about the shot, but I told her it was better than being dead, so she got over it. While we were there, everybody got the Flu Mist. The girls got this last year (they fall into the "must have" category for flu shots since they both have asthma). Trey got the shot last year, but was old enough this year for the mist. He DID NOT like it, but I figure it was better than the shot. He was happy to get a sucker at the end. After the appointment, we rushed home to eat and then on to the fire prevention parade downtown. It was so much fun! We caravaned down with Andy, Alyssa, and the boys. Trey couldn't get enough of the "mow mow shovels" (that is seriously what it sounds like he is saying-it is his word for motorcycles!) He loved all the Police motorcycles in the parade. He also really enjoyed the bagpipes.....and, of course, the firetrucks. Not so much the firefighters (very scary!), just the trucks.

Trey was quick to point out all the trucks and motorcycles!
