Grown-Up Boy

Jack had his Well Child exam today. He was great. He sat and listened and answered questions and did everything he was told. He's 98th percentile in height and 97th in weight.

It was so surreal to see our big guy up there. We're used to having to hold the kids' hands as they lay on the exam table, hold them down when they get squirmy. Jack was his own man. We just sat there for an entire section of the exam, talking amongst ourselves while the doc and Jack went about their business.

And as if I wasn't already having trouble processing how much he's growing, I went into his room tonight to find him listening to the radio - which he had tuned by himself to KDWB. Those of you who don't live in the Twin Cities - it's a Pop/Hip Hop station. He's not quite 5 years old.
