Camdyn's 3 Year

Camdyn had her 3 year exam on Tuesday. They tested her vision by playing a game of sorts. She passed it without issue, and afterwards, the nurse asked if she wanted to play another game.
Camdyn told her no.
By the look on her face, I'm pretty sure that's not the response she was expecting.
After some coercing, she tested Camdyn's speech with some flash card pictures.
Camdyn weighs 40 lbs and is 41.25". She the average height of most 4 1/2 year olds. I was worried that was going to put her on track to be 6'4 by the time she's an adult, but turns out to be 5'9 instead. That could explain why my 3-year-old wears size 5t...well, the height and the little belly she has (is that not PC?) Okay, she's just SOLID. ;)

The dr told us that Camdyn has Excema and that we need to continue lubing her up morning and night with the big ole tub of Eucerin we have. She also prescribed her some hydrocortisone cream, as well. When she asked if I had any concerns, I addressed some of the behaviors we've seen, especially hitting Rowyn. Her words of advise?
Perhaps she's acting out, because her skin is so itchy.

What? Is she for real? She hit Rowyn, because her elbow was itchy? She purposely knocked Rowyn down, because she has a dry spot on her calf?

What? She's hitting because she's itchy? Don't think so. Glad she's doing well otherwise. Better get her into some itch management classes ASAP. ;)

I've never heard of anyone hitting or pushing due to an itchy elbow. Is the dr. perhaps on crack????

So, basically she didn't listen to any of your concerns?
