Sam's Dr. Visit

Sam had a recent well visit check up. He did great. Before the visit, I told him he was not going to get any shots this time. Then, of course, the doctor suggested he get a vaccine for hepatitis A (which isn't a requirement). I decided to hold off because I did not want Sam to feel tricked since I told him there would not be any shots that day.

The doctor said Sam is in the 95th percentile for height and 75th percentile for weight. She said based on his growth history he would grow up to be at least six feet two inches tall. His vision test was 20/20. Then at the end the doctor whispered to me asking if she should go get a S-U-C-K-E-R, actually spelling it out. Before I could even respond, Sam replied that, yes indeed, he wanted a sucker.
