i went to see the mean guy and the mean lady today for my 4-month checkup.  as usual, the mean lady made me take off all my clothes.  then she stretched me out on the table to see how tall i am and plopped me into the bucket scale to figure out how much i weigh.  i was so cold and so mad that i tried to pee on her.  i missed because she was too quick, and i ended up flooding the bucket instead

then the mean guy came in and pressed on my stomach, poked at my ears, stuck his fingers in my mouth… sheesh!  when he went for my testicles, that was the last straw.  i was so mad that i tried to pee on him too.  and guess what — i got him!  doc said that i am the first kid to win the “shoot the doctor” contest in a really long time.  yay me!  mommy told me to apologize, but the doctor said that he doesn’t blame me for getting revenge.  no hard feelings.

doc checked out my two little teeth and my full head of hair.  he said that he has only had one patient who got teeth earlier than i did.  he also said that most parents forget, but mommy and daddy must have remembered to check the hair and teeth options when they ordered me.  my doctor is so funny!

so, i weigh 15 pounds 2 ounces (55 %ile) and i am 26 inches long (83 %ile).  wowzers, i am getting to be so tall!  the mean lady made me eat the same yucky syrup and get the same two shots as i did at my 2 month appointment.  but at least mommy didn’t cry this time.  i am so proud of her

(mommy says that my nurse is actually a really sweet lady and that my pediatrician is a very nice man.)
