Tuesday I took Mackenzie to a long overdue doctor appointment. Since the last time I took her to her pediatrician, we had Medicade, I had to find her a new doctor. [We've had Insurance through Matt's job for a while now] So the new pediatrician, Dr. Harrin was called & we got to meet him. He is AMAZING & so is his office! I hadn't realized that Mackenzie was behind on her shots so the poor girl had to get some shots in. :( She goes back on the 18th for the flu vaccine & one more shot, then she'll be done until her next birthday. Before the shots came Mackenzie did her hearing and seeing test along with the routine weigh-in, blood pressure & height check. She was having so much fun doing it all! She passed her hearing test with flying colors. She did amazing! The nurse said her sight was about 20/40 & that most 5 year olds sight is about 20/30...i'm not too worried and will take the next step if she is showing signs of sight issues once she starts school. Dr. Harrin will also be Emily's pediatrician & he is very excited to be having a new baby to see.
I wanted so badly to take pictures of Mackenzie at the doctor office, but thought that might destract her from her sight and hear tests, so I restrained myself. Maybe next time! :)
