So my fear has come true...
McKinley and I met my mom at the McDonald's today for a quick lunch. We were sitting enjoying lunch when all out of nowhere McKinley yells..."mom look...witch!" As she is pointing I look over and see a poor homeless woman sitting drinking a soda and eating a burger. She was covered head to toe in dirt. My heart sank. I felt so bad. McKinley is so innocent and didn't mean anything bad by what she was saying...she really thought the woman was a witch. Over and over she kept telling and pointing, I kept shhhing her and telling her no McKinley she is nice and not a witch. Oh well, it was hopeless. Luckily I think we were far enough away the lady didn't notice or hear anything, but still so embarrassing. The fear that one day your kid will say something embarrassing and you have no control came true today. Hopefully never again! However when we got home she did say..."mom witch at donalds....." AHHHHH.

Finally...2 year stats
So finally...I took McKinley in for her two year wellness check. About a month late. Oh well what do you do! Thankfully sweet McKinley is healthy and great.
She is in this stage where she loves anything doctor related. For her birthday she even got her own doctor med bag. She has done quite the examinations haha...checks mama's heart every thirty minutes! She yells...ba boom...ba boom! She uses a flashlight to check our ears, mouth, and points to on legs and arms. She always has to ask "does it hurt?" "fall down?"...melt my heart. Who knows maybe we are on to something...a future Dr. McKinley...you never know!
McKinley did need one last shot, she didn't even cry this time. We talked about being a big girl and being brave. She did AMAZING! She was laughing and talking to the doctor and nurses...I kept watching in disbelief. What a big girl I have now! I am such a proud mama!
The doctor proceeded to tell me a study that shows/guesstimates how tall your two year old will be as an adult with a high percentage of accuracy. I was shocked to hear the news. Give or take an inch or two at the most...the doctor said McKinley will be 5'11'' tall...holy crap! haha! We have a volleyball player on our hands and I am stoked! She is one tall lean machine! He said he can't see her being much smaller then 5'9''. If you see me outside practicing a spike approach with my two year old you know why now!
She is still in the 20th percentile for weight at a whopping 25 lbs. and she is 34-35'' tall...
I am just glad she is healthy and strong. And more importantly doesn't need any more shots till Kindergarten....woohooo!
