Colton had his 3-year check up yesterday at the Dr.  He weighs 33 pounds and is 3'1" tall!  He is growing and doing great!  Austin came to the appointment as well, so both boys could get flu vaccines.  They had the nasal mist for both of them and they did really well.  Austin wanted to go first.  The nurse told him that after she mists it into his nose, he needs to pretend he is smelling a flower so that it gets sucked up.  He did great!  After that, Colton did just as great as Austin.  They were very proud of themselves and the nurse let them each pick a sticker for being so brave. 

Last night, the five of us went on a walk around our neighborhood.  The boys collected sticks, pinecones, rocks and leaves.  They brought all their treasures home and we had an arts and crafts time.  They each glued all of their findings onto construction paper.  This morning, they were very excited that the glue was dry and they could hang up their 'science projects'.  Austin explained to me that next year when he is in kindergarten, he will be doing a lot of science projects . . . so this one was really good practice!  He is so cute and of course had a great reason as to why we were collecting items on our walk!  Colton was excited because he got to use glue, scissors and the stapler!  And to be honest, with all the glue they used, I was surprised that it was actually dry this morning.  :)
