Easter Eggs and Tales from a Dr. Visit

Luc and I had SO MUCH FUN coloring Easter eggs today. He has been bugging me all week to do it. I stayed up late last night to boil the eggs so we could color them today. I picked Luc up early from Shelly's and told him we were doing 3 things tonight. First, we were going to the Doctor for his 3 year check up. Second we were going to make Tacos for Dinner, and Third, we were going to color Easter Eggs and he was Soooooooo excited!

Luc had to do something new this year at the Doctor. He had to do a urine test so he had to pee in a cup. So, before they took all his measurements and vitals and stuff, they handed me a cup and pointed us towards the bathroom. Well, for the next 15-20 minutes, we stood at the toilet. First Luc would cry, then he would laugh, then he would play with the toilet handle (flusher), then he would get mad. I think he was a little freaked out by the whole "peeing in the cup" thing. So, I tried a little bribary! I told him he could get a lollipop if he peed in the cup. Well he wouldn't so we left the bathroom. The rest of the appointment went fine. He's up to 32 1/2 pounds now and is 39 1/4 inches tall (3' 3"). He had to have his finger pricked and was looking at me when the nurse did it. He screamed out OWWWWWW! and then hit the nurse in the shoulder. I was mortified, Luc was crying, and the nurse was laughing. Anyways, the Dr. finally comes in and does his check up. All is good and he is right where he is supposed to be for his age. Before we leave, we try the cup one more time and HE DID IT!!!!! And boy oh boy was he proud of himself!! He left that bathroom, marched right up to the counter and asked for his lollipop! The minute we got home he told Daddy all about how he "peed in a cup!" Oh, the things you are proud of when you have a 3 year old son!!!!
