We did take boys to a first available doctor, because our regular doctor is booked for next month and we wanted to get done with all medicals for boys before school starts.
Danik is on skinny side, below average, and Stasik is an average child.
Danik is 4'4" and weights 56 lb (9 year old)
Stasik is 4'1.25' and weights 53 lb (7 year old)
**funny part, our 4 year old Denny weights 50 lb :)
When Danilka came to our family in 2009
Danilka was 4'2" and about 60 lb (and he was 8 year old at that time). I know that Danilka weights 76 lb now, and I am not sure about his height, we have appointment for him next month.
We got a refferal for Danik to see eye doctor, and hopefully we can get a new glasses for him by the time school starts. They will call us with first available appointment for Danik. Danik's one eyes is way off, even with a glasses on. This year, first day of school will be August 9, its way to early! I really hope that someday, I will be able to have our kids home, and home-school all our kids. For now, I don't see homeschooling as an option, because kids don't' speak English, and at home they will never learn.
It is amazing how fast they grow! Alli was so tiny when we met her 15 months ago. She grew nearly 5 inches and 15 lbs in a year!
ReplyDeleteGlad they are healthy, they will catch up in weight. :)
ReplyDeleteI just had to come back to this page to check your boys' heights and weights when they first arrived in America. Andrew is 11 and the same size as your 9-year-old Danik...so I was correct that Andrew is quite a bit behind. We have our doctor's appointment Friday. Thanks for sharing this info.
