Gracie's 3 Year Update

I decided it would be easiest to take both kids to the doctor at one time for Nolan's 1 week and Gracie's 3 year.  Good idea but thankful my dad was in town to drive me since I am not allowed to drive yet and Troy was able to meet us there which was a blessing.  Gracie did great getting weighed and standing against the wall to get her height.  Once in the room she stripped down for her check up minus the underwear which I think she thought was so funny.  Once Dr Weber came in she was running like crazy showing off for doctor Weber.  In the midst of the questions from Dr Weber to see what she could go Gracie went from showing off to saying, "I don't know" to all her questions.  She was wound but the poor girl had not gotten a good play in for a couple of days so I think being cooped up did no help her.  Dr Weber drew lines and Gracie had to pick which was longer which she did right away.  She new her colors pink, purple and blue but there after she went to orange for every color the doctor pulled out and  I don't know to all questions that followed.  It was interesting.  Dr Weber was a little shock by how much she talked and ran around.  In past visits Gracie usually sits very seriously and quiet during her visits not saying a thing, but on this day she was in rare form.

Her Stats:
Weight: 31lbs - 60% - this is good, she had gotten sick about a month ago and was down to 27lbs
Height: 3ft - 37% - We thought this girl had long legs but Dr Weber said she maybe a short girl.  We will have to see, her cheeks are starting to get pretty full again which usually means a growth spurt is on its way.
New to Her World:  Gracie is now a big sister and is handling it really well.  There are times she really wants some mommy love but that is not so different then before for us.  I think the thing she misses the most is playing with her friends.  I am going to have to get creative with activities this winter to keep her from getting board.  I think play dates will be a must during the week so she won't go to crazy.  Plus leaving in Ohio means harsh weather not something you can still go out in for walks or to ride your bike.
