He's gonna be big....

So the team went to Dr. JOOOOOOOOOOON, as the wee man calls her.

For the big two year check up. Was in a pretty good mood, we got seen relatively quickly. All is good.

So we take the clothes off and weigh in. Ring up at 33lbs. Not to shabby, and we stretch out to get measured. 38" tall. WOW. again not shabby. Tech goes away. Nurse N. Comes in asks a bunch of questions most of which are no yes type of question. Looks in the ears eyes etc. Again doing fine. She looks at the chart. Off the chart for height high 90s for weight and head size ( that one is no shock given the gene pool from which he comes..) she does some quick calculating.
6'4" give or take 2 inches she says.

Goodness gracious. Buddha help me if hes 6'6". He will be the tallest one in the family probably although Kiwi's clan might get there as well

We also had the 2nd Birthday party.

Good time was had by all more or less

more on that in the next post which hopefully will be today or tomorrow.....

Haircut!

The wee man has had many "trimmings" of the hair since he was about a year old. A couple of weeks ago we took him to a kiddie hair cutting establishment to get a little more detailed trip to shape up his mop of curls. While the woman was "trimming", I realized that she had "trimmed" a whole lot more than I had anticipated. Initially I was seething and had to leave, because I LOVE my son's blond curls. I won't even go into the amount of money I spent growing up trying to achieve just such curls.. but I digress. So after Mr. Human Team pays the lady and the wee man comes bounding out totally unawares of what has transpired, I calmed down a bit. I did have to admit that his hair CUT was cute and that it suited his face and his personality just right.

So fast forward to last night. Mr. Human Team was working late so the wee man and I were off for an adventure. We dropped our nanny off at the metro and headed over to the strip mall for some milk. I realized that my dear son need another "trim" and so I went into the kiddie hair cutting place and looked for the woman who cut his hair before. She was there and he climbed right up on the chair and sat down. She starts cutting, but this time I'm prepared and totally OK with it. His hair grows so fast that it'll be like he never had a hair cut in about 2 weeks. It's super thick and wavy so it's very easy to take care of when it's given some sort of balance. When all was said and done... the wee man has a whole new look. I think he looks super adorable and totally little boy material. Yes, I'm talking to those people who ask me how old my little "girl" is when he is obviously dressed in head to toe "Cars" apparel and playing with a Tonka Truck. There is no mistaking... he's all boy :) Enjoy!
