Chase's "2 Year" Doc's Appointment

On Tuesday (the 21st) Ian took Chase to his doctors apt. because I had to help out a friend. Of course at this age, he is too big for the pediatric scale so they put him on the regular one with all of his clothes & shoes on...He weighed 33.5lbs. This weight puts him into the 95 percentile! He is 90cm tall, which is the 75 percentile. Chase has notoriously been sturdy from the get go, but the doctor did tell Ian that Chase needs to eat more vegetables, (MY KID HATES VEGGIES!!) and to no longer give him homo milk...to start giving him 2%.
I might note, that just because my boy hates most veggies right now, doesn't mean that we don't offer them...we do, and slowly...he is starting to appreciate broccoli! Phew...
He also said to only give him something to eat when he tells us he is hungry...My kid ALWAYS tells me he is hungry...Has anyone seen him lately...He rarely sits still...He is constantly burning energy!
Anyhow, we don't have to bring Chase back for 6 months to a year. He is healthy and did great at his appointment the only thing he didn't do for the doctor was, he didn't want to open his mouth.
