growing boys

I took the boys to see Dr. Marks for their well-child checks last week. I'm not sure it was the smartest move to take two healthy children to a pediatrician's office during swine flu season. But I think Liam has already had it, and we're all feeling pretty healthy. (So far, no symptoms...)

Anyway, they're growing boys! Milo weighs 99 pounds and stands 4 feet 7 inches - to Liam's 76 pounds and 4 feet 5.5 inches. Liam doesn't seem to mind that his little brother is bigger - his response is, yeah, well, I'm smarter. (Hmmm...) Dr. Marks gave Liam a hard time for his picky eating habits, but pronounced both boys healthy, smart and well-adjusted.

We didn't get a flu shot or the H1N1 vaccine. Stay tuned for more on this topic in a later post.

Afterwards we went to Michael Jackson's This Is It movie. The boys were riveted, and I was nostalgic.
