For the interested, she was 39" tall and 33 pounds at her checkup, which was at 3yrs 2.5mos. I wish I'd asked for one of the other doctors in the practice as the two that had done her previous checkups there actually sat down and were more thorough than our assigned PCM there, who did the Thursday checkup. She seemed more concerned with her bowel movements and the much-improved "lazy eye" in her left eye. (The base clinic didn't think it was an issue, so she's never had it evaluated by an eye doctor. It's barely noticable now compared to when she was 18-24 months old.) Se insists on referring her out for the latter, but our medical coverage ends in two weeks and the only pediatric eye specialist Tricare covers here is at Children's Hospital, which is usually booking five months out. *shrugs* Once she's covered by CHP+ I'll see what they cover for eye exams.

Laurel hasn't had a checkup at the base clinic since she was 12 months old; I didn't like the pediatric provider she saw there because she was so terse she'd give me handouts instead of just telling me she taught Laurel had dry skin. I really liked the immunizations section, though. They always told me what they were doing and what to expect afterward.
I'm looking at preschool or some other social activity so Laurel can spend more time with kids her age -- the only kids we know her age are from her twice-a-week swim class and none of them live nearby. If she can consistently use the potty by the semester break, she can start preschool in January at our neighborhood school. I'm really hoping she can do that!
Give Kira a big hug for me -- we've been rooting for her to heal quickly since the accident.
hi

Would you mind dropping me an e-mail with your new mailing address? The little chocolate golem and I picked up an uber-bag of chocolate chips since I noticed yesterday we were out of them.
